When we reach your location

The very first task that our technician will do once he arrives at your place is to confirm if the problem you reported via our customer service is correct or not - misfuelling. If the finding is negative, no services will be done on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in a vehicle. You won't have to pay for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

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 type of fuel. Besides, we won’t charge you more on the price of fresh fuel since we charge a similar price as any gasoline station. And when it's time to pay, we can take all major debit and credit cards, as we know you may not bring enough cash and have probably stopped a long way from the closest cash machine.

Other Services

This could be of interest to you.

You might also wish to find out if we give other services aside from solving the issue of incorrect fuel.

Once our mobile technician has emptied out the wrong fuel, they have a full tank of contaminated fuel which must be disposed of. These days, such fuel should be dumped properly since pouring it out might contaminate the surroundings and the local water supply. We are completely equipped, and Environment Agency authorized to safely dump contaminated fuel.

If you are a commercial or private client needing safe disposal of contaminated fuel, then you can rest assured that you are also in the right place. All you need to do is give us access to where the contaminated fuel is stored, it does not matter whether it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or container since we can get to it and get rid of it safely and securely.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

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

Yet another thing which can cause same signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. Utilizing AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. Therefore, it should only be used by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

In these situations, we can provide the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, like in the case of filling your tank with the wrong fuel. Whatever caused you to get stranded, we can help you to get back on the road. We can also replace those fuel filters damaged by water.

We understand how tough it is to overcome moments like this but we are happy you contacted us. Our help extended to you means a lot to us. Not only can we help get you back on the road, we hopefully helped you get back your peace of mind too.

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.
