The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!




On getting to your location

The first thing the mobile technician will do when he gets to you is to check the problem. And if he finds out that it is not the problem of wrong fuel in the vehicle, 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.

Assuming it is the incorrect fuel in your car as usually is the case, our technicians have all the equipment 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. Besides, we won’t charge you more on the cost of fresh fuel since we charge the same price as any fuel station. We are very considerate when it’s time for you to make the payment, we understand this is an emergency situation for you so we don't insist on cash but allow all the major debit and credit cards.

Other Services

Are you aware?

You might be thinking how else we might help you.

At the end of the day, our technician will be taking a tank-full of contaminated fuel they have drained from several cars that will need to be disposed of. These days, such fuel must be discarded appropriately since pouring it out might contaminate the environment and the local water supply. But we can manage it for you since we have the ideal tools, and we are certified by the Environment Agency to do so.

This is a unique service that we provide to business and private customers. All you should 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 vehicle function badly. Symptoms cited 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 coming out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the car runs and even failing to run at all. In cases of incorrect fuel, the fuel filter won't be damaged. But with water contamination, it should be replaced.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution used to boost the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above signs. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. Hence, it should only be utilized by somebody who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

But you can relax if you experience any of the above problems since we can flush the system just like in the case of incorrect fuel. It does not matter if the issue is incorrect fuel, damaged fuel filters, water contaminated fuel or the incorrect usage of AdBlue, we can help fix your car so as to enable you to hit the road again.

Don’t be worried about waiting for long considering that our mobile mechanic will reach you as quickly as possible whilst you go through our services and information, and he should be with you not long from now. For most situations, our standard time for getting our clients sorted and back on the road is just 30 minutes.

We know that the day has been very stressful, but we do hope that we have helped you stay relieved and allowed you to continue with the journey with ease.

Typical fuel drain tales in Finglesham:

Wrong Fuel in Car Finglesham - Petrol in Diesel Car Finglesham

The owner of a Finglesham was sorry that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle when he got as far as the street and it coughed and stopped. "I've gone and put unleaded in my diesel vehicle," is what he said to us the very first time he called. To tell the truth, when he first contacted us he said he wanted to comparison shop, but he phoned us back soon enough because our rate and on-scene times were the most appropriate. As you can imagine, our fuel drainer had him back carrying out his deliveries within the time period we had estimated.

This was what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had been quite quiet so far, and Paul and I were loafing around looking at a couple of old papers. That was an uncommon tranquil time. It was in fact so calm that when the phone ultimately rang I jumped! The customer said: "I've only just completed my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in the diesel Finglesham". We told him to inform us just where he was located and we set off, arriving under half an hour later. The fuel was extracted from the car. He said thank you for showing up so fast. While we were coming back home we saw two girls on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we pulled up to change it, 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.
