The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!




Once we reach your site

Upon arrival, our experienced technician will first check out your vehicle to guarantee that it is the problem of incorrect fuel in the car. And if it is not, he won't drain it but will just charge you a minimal amount.

If, as it is in most cases, it is an issue of having the wrong fuel in the car, our technician is completely equipped and experienced to drain out the fuel, flush the system and fill the car with the correct type of fuel. You should not fret that we over-charge you for the fresh fuel; our cost is exactly the same as the current pump price. And when it's time to pay, we can accept all major debit and credit cards, as we understand you may not take enough cash and have possibly stopped a long way from the nearest cash machine.

Other Services

Are you aware that we offer other services too?

We also offer other services to our clients after dealing with the issue of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. Under no circumstance should you try to get rid of it yourself since you can easily affect the environment or pollute the closest water supply. We are professional in this field too as we are certified by Environment agency and we have the right equipment to do this work, both legally and safely.

Getting rid of contaminated fuel is another separate service that we give to commercial and private customers at a fee. All you have to do is give us access to where the contaminated fuel is stored, it does not matter whether it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or container since we can get to it and get rid of it safely and securely.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your car behave badly. Symptoms stated above for an engine with the wrong fuel can also be observed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the car runs and even failing to run at all. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

AdBlue if added improperly it can also exhibit the same signs in your car. This additive which is used to purify the emissions of your engine should just be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If added manually, this should be carried out by someone who knows the correct place to put it.

But you don't have to worry since we can fix both issues for you by applying the same procedure utilized in solving the issue of wrong fuel. So, if your issue is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the incorrect tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus allowing you to continue with your journey.

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.
