We will help to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your vehicle. They can also fix any of the typical troubles which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

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

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is going to bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations very simply.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely 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:

  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.
