The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!




Once we arrive

Once our mobile technician arrives, he will check the situation before taking any action. And if he discovers that it is not the problem of wrong fuel in the car, he won’t drain it unnecessarily, and you will just be charged an updated amount which is not equal to the cost of incorrect fuel in a car.

If, as it is in most situations, it is a problem 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 vehicle 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. We also know that you may not be carrying enough cash with you hence you should know that we also accept any major credit card or debit card payments.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Aside from wrong fuel, water can also cause same signs, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, signs of no power and stalling. Hence you should also suspect it. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, such as damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in case of wrong fuel.

Another thing which can cause similar symptoms is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by someone who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Hence, it should just be used by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

Whether it is the issue 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. Regardless of what caused you to get stranded, we can help you to get back on the road. We can also replace those fuel filters compromised by water.

Other Services

Besides draining out the wrong fuel in a vehicle, we provide other services linked to that. For instance, we do help our clients dispose of contaminated fuel. This is because your average mechanic is not authorized to do it nowadays because it can easily damage the environment and even contaminate the local water supply. Our certification from the Environment Agency makes us capable of disposing contaminated fuels the appropriate way and legally.

We provide this as a service in itself to both business and private customers. We can drain fixed or mobile tanks and also a wide range of other containers, as long as we can get to them. Rest assured that we will empty out the contaminated fuel and get rid of it safely to the right regulations.

Just wait for a moment and we'll be there. If you were already growing impatient as you go through our services, you can rest be assured that we will be with you as soon as possible. Then, give our technician around 30 minutes to work on your engine problem. You will be back on the road soon.

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

It is our hope that despite the traumatic experience you have had today we have reduced the inconvenience you suffered and have managed to put you back on the road and on your way to where you need to be.

This really was what we call the night shift. It was about sunrise and nobody was around. It was rather dead until now, and John and I were loafing about looking through several old papers. This was an unusual peaceful hour. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that the instant the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The voice told me: "I've just finished my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in the Chilmington Green in error". I asked him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was situated and we headed out, arriving not as much as 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the engine. He said thanks for coming out so fast. While we were going back home we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. So we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

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.
