Basil Blackwell

After filling my diesel car with petrol at 9:30pm in Glasgow, Gerry arrived within 40 minutes and had me driving away just before 11pm. Great service from a very pleasant and affable operator.

Flora Kiakia

Gerry came to our rescue after I put the wrong fuel in my car in Kilmarnock near Glasgow. He was very professional, caring and such a great help. He offered my sister and I to stay in his van to stay warm, he explained what he was doing every step of the process and was just so considerate overall.

COmmon Fuel Mistakes We Fix Every Day

Petrol in a Diesel Car

One of the most frequent fuelling errors. If petrol enters a diesel system, it strips away necessary lubrication—potentially damaging the fuel pump and injectors. We drain the tank, flush the system, and top up with the correct fuel.

Diesel in a Petrol Car

Diesel is too heavy for petrol engines and can block fuel filters or foul spark plugs. If you’ve noticed misfiring or power loss, stop immediately and call us.

AdBlue in the Diesel Tank

AdBlue doesn’t belong in your fuel tank. It’s a urea-based fluid meant for your vehicle’s emissions system. Left untreated, it can corrode and crystallise in fuel lines—leading to engine failure. We’ll fully clean and restore your fuel system.

Symptoms of Misfuelling – Know the Warning Signs

If you’ve already started the engine after misfuelling, you might notice:

Difficulty starting
Engine knocking or misfiring
Smoke from the exhaust
Dashboard warning lights
Loss of power or stalling
Unusual smells or noises

If you experience any of these, stop the vehicle safely and call us right away. Acting quickly can save you thousands in repair costs.

Your Fuel Mistake – Fixed

We know how stressful a mis-fuel can be—especially when you’re in a rush or far from home. That’s why we make it simple, safe, and affordable to get back on the road. No judgments, no delays—just professional service when you need it most.
