Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Nuthampstead (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Hertfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will be able to deal with the usual troubles that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Nuthampstead

Now I'm certainly not very keen on running on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had just come away from the family filled with a fantastic roast cooked by the wife, and I was off to assist a guy after he had filled the wrong fuel in his new Isuzu i-370. He was situated in Nuthampstead so it wasn't long before I reached him. As I arrived behind the car and stepped out he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my mind on other considerations and didn't realise I have put diesel in my petrol car. Have I brought on any kind of harm because of running it?" I said there shouldn't be any kind of problems and that I would personally get the wrong fuel drained right away for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and so another delighted motorist could continue on his traveling without the fuss. The guy could hardly stop thanking me, and that is actually what can make working on Sundays in Hertfordshire just a small bit less painful for me!

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:

    • 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.
