Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Wadhurst (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete East Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your automobile. They will be able to take care of the standard problems that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel is likely to produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances rather quickly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
