We will get out to refill your car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your automobile. They will be able to fix the normal problems that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank is going to produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases fairly expediently.

Be aware that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be totally 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.
