We're able to get out to refill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home.

They will take care of any of the common issues that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank may lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances fairly simply.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

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.
