Other Services

Are you aware?

You might also want to know if we offer other services apart from solving the issue of incorrect fuel.

Once our mobile technician has emptied out the wrong fuel, they have a full tank of contaminated fuel which needs to be disposed of. You aren’t permitted to pour such things these days as it will pollute waterways and have a dangerous impact on the environment, and may even contaminate the local water supply. But we can manage it for you since we have the ideal tools, and we are certified by the Environment Agency to do so.

We give this as a service in itself to both commercial and private clients. We can drain fixed or mobile tanks as well as a wide variety of other containers, as long as we can reach them.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

You should also pay attention to the fact that wrong fuel is not the only problem which makes the engine run in an abnormal manner, but at times the presence of water in the fuel can also make your vehicle produce a lot of smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, like damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in the event of wrong fuel.

Yet another thing which can cause similar signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by somebody who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Therefore, it should just be used by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

But you do not have to fret since we can fix both problems for you by using similar procedure utilized in solving the problem of wrong fuel. We are always there to fix your car and get you back on the road no matter if it is an issue of the incorrect fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
