Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your car. They will be able to fix the standard issues that can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can potentially result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

It truly was an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It was rather quiet so far, and Ryan and I were relaxing looking through some old newspapers. This was a rare calm moment in Hampshire. Actually it was that relaxing that the moment the phone rang I leaped! The voice stated: "I only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in the mate's BMW 8 Series in error". We asked him to let us know just where he was situated and we set off, arriving in Popley only an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the vehicle. He thanked us for showing up so promptly. As we were returning home we saw two women on the side of the street who seemed to have a puncture. So we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

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.
