They will be able to take care of any of the typical issues which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations rather simply.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly 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.

    • 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.
