We can help to refill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They are also able to take care of the normal troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important situation to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances pretty simply.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet 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.
