The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!




Once we arrive

First thing the mobile mechanic will do when he reaches you is to verify the problem. And if he discovers that it is not the issue of incorrect fuel in the car, he won’t drain it unnecessarily, and you will only be charged an updated amount which is not equal to the cost of incorrect fuel in a car.

Signs of car irregularities stated above are an indication that your car has been filled with incorrect fuel. Since we carry the needed equipment and fresh fuel, we can fix that issue right away wherever you are. You should choose us because of these three reasons. The first reason is that we've got the skills to empty out the wrong fuel and change it out with the right fuel. The second reason is that we ask for the same price for fresh fuel as that priced in a service station. And the third reason is that we allow all types of payment, hence if you don’t have enough cash with you, we will take payments through any major credit or debit card.

Other Services

Besides draining out the wrong fuel in a car, we provide other services related to that. For instance, we do help our customers get rid of contaminated fuel. This is because your average mechanic is not allowed to do it nowadays because it can quickly damage the environment and even pollute the local water supply. We have all it takes to do so since we are not just accredited by the Environment Agency but also have the best equipment for it.

It is also a service that we provide separately to commercial and private clients at a fee. We can drain fixed or mobile tanks and also a wide variety of other containers, as long as we can reach them. Rest assured that we will empty out the contaminated fuel and get rid of it safely and securely to the right regulations.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

There are other causes of engine problems apart from filling your vehicle with the wrong fuel. The existence of water in your fuel also makes your vehicle to show similar signs, which include: lack of power, trouble running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. Water is also likely to cause irreparable damage to fuel filters.

One more thing which can cause similar symptoms 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. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

If you are faced with either of these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried as we can handle both of these problems making use of the same procedure we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. So, if your issue is incorrect fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus allowing you to continue with your journey.

You will soon get back on the road

Don’t worry about waiting for long considering that our mobile technician will reach you as quickly as possible whilst you go through our services and information, and he should be with you not long from now. For most situations, our standard time for getting our customers sorted and back on the road is just thirty minutes.

In some cases, wrong fuel in a car can lead to additional issues such as a flat battery and the existence of air in the fuel system. But our skilled technicians also have the tools and abilities to put everything right and get you on your way.

So, if you were feeling any kind of stress because of the incorrect fuel issue, now you can feel relieved like nothing had happened and be ready to resume your journey.

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.
