The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!




Once we reach your site

Upon arrival, our experienced technician will first check out your car to ensure that it is the problem of wrong fuel in the car. And if it is not, he won't drain it but will just ask you for a nominal amount.

If, as it is in most situations, it is an issue of having the wrong fuel in the car, our technician is fully equipped and knowledgeable to drain out the fuel, flush the system and fill the vehicle with the correct kind of fuel. We don’t charge crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we just charge the present pump prices. We are quite considerate when it’s time to make the payment, we know this is an emergency situation for you so we don't insist on cash but accept all the major debit and credit cards.

Other Services

Did you know that we also offer other services?

You must also remember that we dispose of contaminated fuel on behalf of our customers. The contaminated fuel should not be disposed of by anyone unqualified, but by a professional in this field because fuel disposal incorrectly done can pollute the water supply and damage the surroundings. We are also professionals in this industry and are authorized by the Environment Agency that we have the equipment to use in getting rid of it, both properly and legally.

This is a unique service that we offer to commercial and private customers. All you have to do is grant us access, and it won’t matter if it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or any other container, we will drain it. Rest assured that we will empty out the contaminated fuel and dump it safely to the right regulations.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

Contamination of fuel by water is another issue which can make your car function badly. Symptoms stated above for an engine with the incorrect 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 car runs and even failing to run at all. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

Putting AdBlue in the fuel tank can also make your car to show similar signs. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your vehicle to be more eco-friendly. Nonetheless, if this is added straight to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more harm than good. That's why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If this is added into the fuel tank by somebody who has no knowledge of AdBlue, the result would be not good for the engine.

In these situations, we can give the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, just like in the case of filling your tank with the incorrect fuel. It does not matter what the cause is, we can get you back on your way. As we deal with your fuel trouble, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

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.
