Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Chirbury (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill the car. They will be able to deal with any of the typical issues which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel will often produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases fairly quickly.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

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.

  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.
