The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!




On arrival of the technician at your location

The first task that our technician will do once he arrives at your location is to confirm if the problem you reported via our customer care is correct or not - misfuelling. If it is not, he won’t render any service linked to the incorrect fuel in the vehicle, and in that situation, you won’t be charged the quoted fee but an updated amount.

If the technician discovers that it is really the case of wrong fuel then he will start fixing it right away as he already has the fresh fuel and the necessary tools to fix the problem. He will empty out the mixed fuel, flush the fuel system, and refill the tank with fresh fuel priced just the same as that charged in the petrol station. We are aware that you might not be carrying enough cash with you, but you don’t have to worry because we accept any common debit or credit card thus you can use them to pay.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

There are other reasons for engine troubles besides wrong fuel in a vehicle. Such signs as lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. Besides, it can make the fuel filters unusable and require replacement.

AdBlue is a solution which is used eliminate toxic gases from the engine's exhaust, and if it is put in the diesel tank then it can also cause similar issues. AdBlue contamination can also take place if it is used by somebody who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. 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.

In both of the cases above, we can offer the same fuel system draining, flushing and refilling service as we do if you put the wrong fuel in your car. Regardless of what caused you to get stranded, we can help you to get back on the road. As we deal with your fuel trouble, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

Other Services

We also provide other services aside from fixing the problem of wrong fuel

You must also note that we get rid of contaminated fuel on behalf of our customers. Such contaminated fuels need to be disposed of by an expert and not by just anyone since they can degrade the environment and even pollute local water supplies. We are also professionals in this field and are authorized by the Environment Agency that we have the equipment to utilize in getting rid of it, both safely and legally.

Getting rid of the contaminated fuel is also a service of its own which we offer to private and commercial customers. If you are a customer in need of this service, all you have to do is give us access to the fixed, mobile storage tank, or any other container where it is stored, and be assured that we will empty them out and then eliminate the contaminated fuel in accordance with the safety regulations in place.

You will soon get back on the road

Our technician was called out to a petrol station when a elderly lady wrong fueled her Hicks Forstal by putting petrol in her diesel car.

As we'd promised she was just that, but not before stating: "Your business is incredibly service focused, I'm very pleased my vehicle is fine," and that she would endorse us to anyone.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hicks Forstal - Fuel Rescue Hicks Forstal

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to help an older sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel Hicks Forstal. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded along a country lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location in the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I reached the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing it she said to me, "I am becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel since I had just purchased it several days ago when my old one, which I had had for in excess of twenty five years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. What a delightful woman!

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 anywhere in Kent to 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.
