A time comes when traveling becomes the worst nightmare, particularly when you have pumped the wrong fuel into your vehicle. It would even make the matter worse if this nightmare took place when you are far away from home. As a result, you start feeling frustrated because you have a lot of things to take care of. However, things don't always have to be that way as we have got your back in the event of such emergencies.
Wrong Fuel Sutton
You may have used your car already before realizing you added the wrong fuel, but it's not a problem. You may start to notice low revs in your car and/or smoking and spluttering, but they don't necessarily mean that your vehicle has been damaged seriously. Yes, these are a few sneaky signs of a car that is almost breaking down but trust us when we say you should be fine. All you need are the right people with the best expertise to get the job done fast and excellently.
It's always best to call us without losing any time. Our friendly and ready- to- help operators are always willing to get your call. Just like any other usual emergency call, you will be required to respond to a couple of questions to bring us up to speed with what has occurred and then a fixed charge for the solution will be quoted. If it should happen that you have no money available and are far from any ATM, have no fear. This is because we'll get you back on the road as long as you have any major credit or debit card.
A professional technician will be dispatched to your location immediately after you have agreed to the amount you'll be paying for the service. All of our mobile mechanics are fully trained in the safe and correct use of the specialist equipment required to fix your car. Appropriate trainings about the right use of highly flammable liquids are also provided to our technicians in order to ensure they will not cause further damage to the car, the owner, or themselves. With us, you will never go wrong; our expert technicians are the best in this field.
Even though emergencies are not foreseen, it is very important to place your car at a safe place as you wait for our team of experts to get to you. Due to our effective and efficient networking around the country, our team of professionals doesn't take long just before they avail themselves. Within an hour, they'll be by your side to deal with your vehicle. Since we are very serious with road safety, we offer you with couple of tips about getting safe while on the road. For instance, we insist you put up the triangle warning sign a few meters away for approaching motorist to see. This makes you well visible to other motorists thus preventing accidents or vehicles build-up. In the instances where you don't have the triangle warning sign, you can look for a safe area to pack, off the road. It is significant to leave your pets in the car, if you have any, as you wait for our technicians. Note, this is done for the safety of your pets.

Getting you going again
Safety is always our main priority; this holds true the time our technician arrives. After ensuring everyone is safe, he will then proceed to draining the wrong fuel added to your engine. Aside from draining the fuel tank, there might be a need to empty the fuel lines as well and clean or replace the fuel filter especially if the car has been driven for a long distance. Because our technician is the best in what he does, it would only take him around 30 minutes to complete the whole process.
So what if you called after suspecting that you have filled the tank with the wrong fuel? If so, you do not have a cause for worry because our technician will efficiently examine your vehicle and confirm it and it there's no wrong fuel, we will charge you an affordable price. But in case you have put the wrong fuel in your car, he will empty and flash its fuel system. Our technicians also travel with enough fuel to refuel your vehicle after the contamination has been drained out and all that for a forecourt price. Each technician also comes armed with all relevant equipment and you'll not experience any delays even if your battery is dead and requires some attention. Because our major priority is to make sure that you are well on your way as fast and as securely as possible, you should never need to worry about being left at the side of the road.
Other Fuel Services
We greatly value environmental conservation and when dumping any contaminated fuel, we take excellent care. Therefore, we not only attend to private customers in regards to dumping unwanted fuel but also but also to commercial clients. We have valid registration from the proper Environmental Agencies; thus we have legal approval and permit to dump any unwanted fuel. Besides, we dispose of any quantity of contaminated fuel safely. Size and amount of fuel to be disposed of does not matter to us as we have the appropriate channels to ensure the work is done right. The best part is that when you call our technicians, you can rest assured that this problem will be a thing of the past.
In case of any fuel system related problems, it's best to remember that we can handle whatever is affecting it. For example, if you add liquid such as water to the fuel system, it's bad for the engine. Despite AdBlue being the most preferred diesel emission cleaner, it wouldn't be a good idea to add it to the fuel system since it may bring about engine malfunction. So, when there are similar incidences, we are the recommended team to make things right.
You can be sure that our technical crew is conversant with managing the problem of water and AdBlue. Our secret lies in our vast know-how and modern tools that help us get you back on the road in record time.

Wrong Fuel in Car Sutton - Petrol in Diesel Car Sutton
Now I am not ever very interested in running weekends, and last week was no different. I'd just departed home after a lovely Sunday roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a gentleman because he put the wrong petrol in his Sutton. He was stationed nearby and so I was on scene almost immediately. Just as I arrived at the car and started work he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my attention on other things and failed to realise I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about any kind of problems by running it?" I revealed that there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also that I would personally get the fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Obviously I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and another delighted client could continue on his ride without any subsequent difficulty. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that helps make operating on Sundays a little better for me personally!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Sutton - Petrol in Diesel Sutton
It was after seven pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing talking about the golf results, ready for the 6th job for the day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol station and put petrol in her diesel Sutton lease car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things sadly can happen. She managed to get the car into a protected spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could return to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. A misfuel correction well done in my opinion!
