Getting you going again

Upon arriving in your location, it is always the number one priority of our technician to make sure everybody's safety. After making certain everyone is safe, he will then proceed to draining the wrong fuel added to your engine. Aside from emptying the fuel tank, there might be a need to empty the fuel lines as well and clean or replace the fuel filter particularly if the car has been driven for a long distance. Because our mechanic is the very best in what he does, it would just take him around 30 minutes to complete the whole process.

After the engine is all set, our technicians typically have the right fuel priced at the present fuel charges to help you get to the next fueling point. They will refill after the fuel system is fully restored and as good as new. Furthermore, in case the vehicle has an issue with restarting, they will help you jump start it. Even if there are problems that are not related to the wrong fuel our team will distinguish the problem and repair it within a short time. So you will only need to pay a tiny call charge rather than the initial amount that was to be charged for the problem associated with pumping the incorrect fuel. Never forget that our primary goal is to get you up and running as fast as possible. Our technicians will be at your service until you are set to go.



The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!




Other Fuel Services

Our services are not limited to emptying, cleaning up and refueling tanks. As simple as it may seem, getting rid of contaminated fuel requires a long process. The Environment Agency has really tight rules on the matter, and you have to be accredited by, and registered with them before you can legally eliminate contaminated fuel. We offer a removal and disposal service to private and commercial clients alike. Whether you have one container of contaminated fuel, a trailer load or a fixed big capacity tank, as long as we can gain access to it, we can safely and legally remove and dump the contaminated fuel for you.

In case of any fuel system associated issues, it's good to remember that we can handle whatever is affecting it. An example is if you add any unwanted liquid, say water that may contaminate the fuel in the system. Despite AdBlue being the most favored diesel emission cleaner, it wouldn't be a good idea to add it to the fuel system since it may bring about engine malfunction. Therefore, when such scenarios occur, we are the best team to manage it and fix it well.

You can be certain that our technical crew is conversant with dealing with the issue of water and AdBlue. This is simply because they've got the skills and equipment to get you on the way as quickly as they can.

Reports from our Potter Hill employees:

Wrong Fuel in Car Potter Hill - Petrol in Diesel Car Potter Hill

It was close to 5 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and me were sitting there commenting on the sports, waiting for the 6th job of the day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling garage and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Potter Hill rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few minutes away from where we were, we could arrive at the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away calm and less apprehensive. A fuel drain done well 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:

  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.
