The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!




On getting to your location

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

If it is really the problem of wrong fuel in a car, our technician will solve it immediately since he carries the tools for flushing out the wrong fuel and filling up the tank with the correct fuel. You should not worry that we over-charge you for the fresh fuel; our cost is exactly the same as the present pump price. We also know that you may not be having enough cash with you hence you should know that we also take any major credit card or debit card payments.

Other Services

Did you Know

You might also like to know if we provide other services besides dealing with the issue of incorrect fuel.

At the end of the day, our technician will be taking a tank-full of contaminated fuel they have drained from a few vehicles that will need to be disposed of. These days, such fuel should be disposed of appropriately since pouring it out might pollute the environment and the local water supply. But we can deal with it for you since we have the right equipment, and we are accredited by the Environment Agency to do so.

We provide this as a service in itself to both business and private customers. We have the ability to drain various types of containers including fixed and mobile tanks so long as we can get to where they are located. We subsequently cart away the polluted liquids and properly get rid of them in accordance with the set procedures and regulations.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

You should know that wrong fuel is not the only issue which can make your engine run abnormally. The existence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your vehicle produce lots of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause more damage, such as permanent damage to the fuel filters.

Another thing which can cause same symptoms is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also happen if it is used by someone who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

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

On Your Way

Talking of getting you on your way, if our mobile technician has been beavering away whilst you have been knowing more about our services, he is likely to be close to finishing now. In most instances it takes just about 30 minutes to put things right and get our clients on their way.

Our experienced technicians also have the equipment and know-how to help you handle other problems resulting from wrong fuel, which include: flat battery and air locks in the fuel system, so you won’t be stranded on the road because of them.

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.

It was after 5 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting discussing the weekend's football rankings, waiting around for the next call of the day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Boughton Green hire car in error. She was very irritated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to reach her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was living in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and much less worried. One more job well done in my books!

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.
