I showed up at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the lady telling off her hubby for being so daft. "How could you actually manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!




On arrival of the technician at your location

Once the technician is with you and has access to your vehicle, his first job is to confirm whether the problem of your car is due to incorrect fuel or not. If the finding is negative, no services will be carried out on fixing the suspected wrong fuel in the car. You won't have to pay for the quoted services, rather, a call out charge will be asked of you.

If our technician finds out that it is indeed the problem of wrong fuel, he will start solving it instantly since he will have fresh fuel as well as the needed tools with him. He will immediately remove mixed fuel and then replace it with fresh fuel, and we won’t charge you extra on the fresh fuel. You also don't need to worry if you don't have enough cash with you, we understand your situation and we will take any major credit or debit card.

Other Services

Are you aware that we offer other services too?

We also deliver other services to our customers after solving the matter of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. Such contaminated fuels need to be disposed of by a professional and not by just anyone since they can degrade the surroundings and even pollute local water supplies. We are professional in this field too as we are accredited by Environment agency and we have the right equipment to do this job, both legally and safely.

It is also a service that we deliver separately to business and private customers at a fee. All you need to do is give 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. We can then take away the contaminated liquids, and dispose of them securely to the relevant regulations.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

You should also take note of the fact that incorrect fuel is not the only issue which makes the engine run in an abnormal way, but often the presence of water in the fuel can also make your car produce a lot of smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, like damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in the event of wrong fuel.

The same set of signs may also be due to somebody trying to put AdBlue directly into the fuel tank of a diesel engine. This can be done so through adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the car.

If you are faced with these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried as we can solve both of these issues using similar process we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. We are always there to fix your vehicle 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.

I got there at their car and smiled while I heard to the woman telling her partner off for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on frequently and that it's really absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he all the same had his ear bent by his missus. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyhow, I drained the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the same blunder... I would never ever hear the end of it!
