When we get to your location

The first task that our technician will do once he arrives at your place 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 car, and in that case, you won’t be charged the quoted fee but an updated amount.

If, as it is in most cases, it is a problem of having the wrong fuel in the car, our technician is completely equipped and experienced to drain out the fuel, flush the system and fill the car with the correct type of fuel. You should not fret that we over-charge you for the fresh fuel; our cost is exactly the same as the current pump price. And when it is time to pay, we can take all major credit and debit cards, as we know you may not have enough cash and have possibly stopped a long way from the nearest cash machine.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

Apart from wrong fuel, water can also cause same signs, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, signs of no power and stalling. Hence you should also suspect it. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, like damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in case of wrong fuel.

You can also observe the same signs if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is used 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 directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. Hence if somebody who is not aware of this procedure tries to add it to the fuel, it will result in engine trouble.

We extend our service to you whatever it maybe: whether it is an AdBlue problem or fuel contaminated with water. We can get you back to your journey after we carry out the same procedure as fixing an engine with wrong fuel. Works include draining and flushing, then, replacing with fresh fuel. Fuel filters can be possibly damaged by water contamination in your fuel. We can fix it for you.

Other Services

Other than draining out the wrong fuel in a vehicle, we deliver other services related to that. To name one is getting rid of the contaminated fuel the right and legal way. This is because your average mechanic is not permitted to do it nowadays because it can easily damage the environment and even contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are certified by the Environment Agency, we also have the correct devices for discarding contaminated fuel.

Disposing of the contaminated fuel is a different service that we offer to our private and commercial clients at some fee. If we are given access to the mobile storage tank, fixed storage tank or containers at the given locations, we can quickly get rid of contaminated fuels safely.

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.
