These three reasons should convince you why we should serve you. First and foremost, our teams are competent in dealing with your situation and can get you back on the road quickly.

Other Services

Other than wrong fuel in the car, we also deliver other services associated with it. You should also be familiar with them. For instance, we do help our clients get rid of contaminated fuel. Disposing of this contaminated fuel is not allowed to anyone unless you are qualified to do so. If these fuels are thrown just anywhere, they could damage the environment and possibly contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are accredited by the Environment Agency, we also have the right equipment for discarding contaminated fuel.

To our customers in the private or commercial sector, we offer this service of discarding contaminated fuel separately. If you are a customer needing 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 get rid of the contaminated fuel in accordance with the safety regulations in place.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Contamination of fuel by water is another issue which can make your vehicle behave badly. Symptoms stated above for an engine with the wrong fuel can also be noticed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke appearing out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the vehicle runs and even failing to run at all. This case of water contamination can extend its damage to the fuel filters.

You can also observe similar symptoms if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should just be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the vehicle rather than straight into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If this is added into the fuel tank by somebody who knows nothing of AdBlue, the outcome would be not good for the engine.

In these situations, we can give the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, just like in the case of filling your tank with the incorrect fuel. Whatever caused you to get stranded, we can help you to get back on the road. We can also replace those fuel filters damaged by water.

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.
