Upon our arrival

First thing the mobile mechanic will do when he gets to you is to assess the problem. In the rare case that the problem isn’t wrong fuel in your vehicle, they will know this prior to doing any more work, and only a minimal call out charge will be made.

Signs of vehicle irregularities stated above are an indication that your vehicle has been pumped with incorrect fuel. Since we carry the necessary equipment and fresh fuel, we can fix that problem straight away wherever you are. These three reasons should persuade you why we should serve you. First of all, our teams are skilled in handling your situation and can get you back on the road quickly. Another reason is that we ask for the similar price for fresh fuel as that charged in a gas station. And the third reason is that we take all types of payment, hence if you don’t have ample cash with you, we will allow payments via any major credit or debit card.

Other Services

This could be of interest to you.

You may be curious to know the other services we provide too.

After our technician has emptied a few fuel systems throughout the day, they will have a tank filled with contaminated fuel they need to dispose of. Nowadays, there is a serious issue that such fuel could severely damage the environment or even pollute the water supply so you are not allowed to casually dump it anywhere. We are Environmental Agency Certified and have the necessary knowledge and tools to dispose of contaminated fuel.

Getting rid of the contaminated fuel is a completely different service that we deliver to our private and commercial clients at some fee. If we are given access to the mobile storage tank, fixed storage tank or containers at the given areas, we can quickly get rid of the contaminated fuels safely.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

Contamination of fuel by water is another problem which can make your vehicle behave badly. Symptoms cited above for an engine with the wrong fuel can also be noticed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke appearing out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the vehicle runs and even failing to run at all. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

Another thing which can cause similar signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. Making use of AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. Therefore, it should just be utilized by somebody who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

Whether it is the problem of fuel contaminated by water or with AdBlue, we can solve it using the same procedure of draining, flushing, and refilling of the fuel system, which we generally use to solve the matter of wrong fuel in a car. So, regardless of what the cause we can get you on your way. As we deal with your fuel issue, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

You will be able to carry on with your journey immediately

Don't fret about being stuck on the road for long because we always try our best to complete the task within 30 minutes. So try having our services as our mobile mechanic tries to deal with your issue. We promise to get you on your way as soon as possible.

If there are any other issues related to putting incorrect fuel in your vehicle, such as a flat battery or air locks in the fuel system, our properly trained mechanics have the equipment and skills to put everything right and get you on your way.

So, today has been a bit of a headache, but hopefully, we have lessened the pain and stress, and got you back on your way immediately.

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.

The driver of a Southborough was sorry that he had put unleaded in his diesel automobile when he got as far as the road and it coughed and ground to a halt. "I've gone and put the wrong fuel in my diesel vehicle," is what he shared with us the very first time he rang. In all honesty, when he initially phoned us he said he would like to research prices, but he phoned us back before long because our price and call-out times were the best. Naturally, our fuel drainer had him once again doing his deliveries well within the time we had estimated.
