Once we arrive

Once our mobile mechanic arrives, he will check the situation before taking any action. And if he discovers that it is not the problem of incorrect 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 wrong fuel in a car.

If, as it is in most cases, it is an issue of having the wrong fuel in the car, our technician is fully equipped and experienced 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 like the present pump price. We are very considerate when it’s time to make the payment, we know this is an urgent situation for you so we don't insist on cash but accept all the major debit and credit cards.

Other Services

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

You must also note that we dispose of contaminated fuel on behalf of our clients. Under no circumstance should you try to get rid of it yourself since you can easily affect the environment or pollute the nearest water supply. We are professional in this industry too as we are certified by Environment agency and we have the right equipment to do this job, both legally and safely.

Disposing of the contaminated fuel is a totally different service that we provide to our private and commercial customers at some fee. 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 properly.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

Putting the incorrect fuel in your car isn’t the only reason for engine problems. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause very similar signs of lack of power, irregular running, a lot of smoke and stalling. Water is also likely to cause irreparable damage to fuel filters.

One more thing which can cause similar signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. Making use of AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should only be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

But you do not have to worry since we can fix both problems for you by using the same procedure used in solving the problem of wrong fuel. We are always there to fix your car and get you back on the road no matter if it is an issue of the wrong fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

The owner of a Headcorn was sorry that he put petrol in his diesel car when he got onto the street and it spluttered and ground to a halt. "I've gone and put unleaded in my diesel vehicle," is what he informed us the first time he called. To be honest, when he first phoned us he said he would like to check around, but he called us back before long because our rate and arrival times were the most desirable. Needless to say, our engineer had him performing his deliveries within the period we had cited.
