The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!




When we get to your vehicle

Once the technician is with you and has access to your vehicle, his first job is to confirm whether the problem of your vehicle is caused by incorrect fuel or not. If it is not, he won’t render any service linked to the incorrect fuel in the car, and in that case, you won’t be charged the quoted fee but an updated amount.

If the technician finds out that it is really the case of wrong fuel then he will begin fixing it right away as he already has the fresh fuel and the needed equipment to solve the problem. He will take away the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. We also take all major debit and credit cards as we know your situation and hence there is no need to be scared if you are out of cash.

Other Services

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

We also deliver other services to our customers after solving the issue of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. 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.

This is a unique service that we offer to commercial and private customers. We can drain fixed or mobile tanks and also a wide range of other containers, as long as we can reach them. We can then take away the contaminated liquids, and dump them safely to the relevant regulations.

But you must also note that water can cause other serious damages like damage to fuel filters.

.Addition of AdBlue directly into the fuel tank of a diesel engine also causes same symptoms. It should be added to the vehicle through the dosing system of a separate built-in tank.

But don’t fret as regardless of whether it is an issue of contaminated fuel due to water or AdBlue, we are still able to help you. Through using the same procedure of draining and flushing the fuel system as used in solving the problem of wrong fuel in the car, we can let you get back on the road.

It was after six pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were relaxing talking over the recent football, waiting for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Shell filling station and filled petrol in a diesel North Elham rental car in error. She was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was no more than a short distance away from us, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and much less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction well done in my opinion!

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:

    • 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.
