The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Kingshill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will handle any of the common issues that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is likely to cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances rather swiftly.

You should know though that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GL11 Postcode - Kingshill Misfueling

Just had a good night of sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Sunday and I was en route to help an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel creamy white VW Scirocco in Kingshill. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a rural lane en route to see her godchildren. I plugged the location into the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I reached the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "I am getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I had only just got it a couple of days ago because my previous car, which I had used for more than 25 years, inevitably broke down". I finished the drain and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Gloucestershire woman!

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.
