The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!




Once we reach your site

Once our skilled technician reaches your vehicle he will assess your car to confirm if it is really the case of incorrect fuel in the vehicle. And if it isn't he will not need to do the drain and will just ask you for a minimal cost.

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 knowledgeable to drain out the fuel, flush the system and fill the vehicle with the correct kind 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 understand that you may not be having enough cash with you hence you should know that we also accept any major credit card or debit card payments.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

You should know that incorrect fuel is not the only problem which can make your engine run abnormally. The presence of water in fuel is another problem which can make your vehicle produce lots of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. But you should also note that water can cause other serious damages such as damage to fuel filters.

AdBlue if added wrongly it can also exhibit the same symptoms in your vehicle. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your vehicle to be more eco-friendly. However, if this is added straight to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more trouble than good. That's precisely why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If this is added into the fuel tank by someone who knows nothing of AdBlue, the result would be bad for the engine.

If you are faced with these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried as we can solve both of these problems utilizing the same procedure we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. So, if your issue is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus enabling you to carry on 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.
