Another reason is that we charge the similar price for fresh fuel as that priced in a gas station. And the third reason is that we allow all forms of payment, hence if you don’t have ample cash with you, we will take payments via any major credit or debit card.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

Other than wrong fuel, water can also cause same symptoms, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, signs of no power and stalling. Hence you must also suspect it. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause extra damage, such as irreparable damage to the fuel filters.

.Addition of AdBlue into the fuel tank of a diesel engine also causes similar symptoms. This can be done so through adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the vehicle.

In these situations, we can provide the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, just like in the case of filling your tank with the wrong fuel.

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 anywhere in Kent to 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.
