The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!




On arrival of the mechanic at your car

The very first task that our mechanic will do once he arrives at your place is to verify if the problem you reported via our customer care is correct or not - misfuelling. If the finding is negative, no services will be carried out on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in the car. You won't be charged for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

Assuming it is the incorrect fuel in your vehicle as usually is the case, our mechanics have all the equipment on board and know-how to empty your vehicle's fuel system, flush it out and replenish it with good clean fuel of the correct type. Besides, we won’t charge you more on the cost of fresh fuel since we charge a similar price as any petrol station. And when it's time to pay, we can accept all major credit and debit cards, as we understand you may not carry enough cash and have probably stopped a long way from the nearest cash machine.

Other Services

You should also know that aside from fixing your vehicle with wrong fuel, we deliver other services linked to fuel. For instance, we do assist our clients get rid of contaminated fuel. Getting rid of this contaminated fuel is not permitted to anyone unless you are certified to do so. If these fuels are thrown just anywhere, they could damage the environment and possibly pollute the local water supply. We have all it takes to do so since we are not merely certified by the Environment Agency but also have the best tools for it.

Getting rid of contaminated fuel is another separate service that we offer to commercial and private clients at a fee. All you have to do is give us access to where the contaminated fuel is stored, it does not matter whether it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or container since we can get to it and get rid of it safely and securely.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

There are other factors that cause engine problems besides filling your car with the wrong fuel. Such signs as insufficient power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. Besides, it can make the fuel filters unusable and require replacement.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution utilized to boost the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above signs. Utilizing AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should only be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

In these situations, we can provide the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, 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. Furthermore, we can replace the 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.
