Assuming it is the wrong fuel in your car as usually is the case, our technicians have all the tools on board and know-how to empty your vehicle's fuel system, flush it out and refill it with good clean fuel of the correct type. We don’t charge crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we simply ask for the current pump prices. We also understand that you may not be taking enough money with you hence you should know that we also accept any major credit card or debit card payments.

Other Services

We also deliver other services besides fixing the problem of incorrect fuel

You should also remember that we get rid 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 environment. You should allow us to do it for you since we are not just certified by the Environment Agency but also capable of doing it in the right way, both legally and safely.

Disposing of the contaminated fuel is a completely different service that we provide to our private and commercial customers at some fee. As long as we have use of its fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or containers, we can properly dispose of the contaminated liquids at the designed locations.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle isn’t the only cause of engine problems. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause similar symptoms of lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke and stalling. Besides, it can make the fuel filters unusable and require replacement.

You can also observe the same symptoms if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should just be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than straight into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. Hence if somebody who is not aware of this procedure tries to add it to the fuel, it will result in engine trouble.

If you are faced with these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried because we can handle both of these problems making use of the same process we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. We are always there to fix your car and get you back on the road no matter if it is a problem of the wrong fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

Now I'm not actually very inclined to doing work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just left the family after eating a fantastic lunch made for me by the wife, and I was on the way to sort out a guy after he filled the wrong petrol in his Darenth. He was located nearby so I arrived on scene soon. As I arrived right behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my attention on other stuff and failed to realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused any harm through starting it?" I determined truth be told there shouldn't be damage and also that I'd drain the fuel right away. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus one more pleased client was able to carry on with their journey without the hassle. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that is what helps make working on Sundays a tiny bit better in my opinion!

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.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter

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.
