Run out of fuel in Hullbridge (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the normal problems that could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important condition to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

This was most definitely an unsociable time to be up. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was around. It had been quite quiet up to now, and me and Brian were sitting about browsing a number of old newspapers. That was an unusual peaceful hour in Essex. Actually it was that relaxing that the instant my mobile eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the phone told me: "I've only just completed my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in my pristine Toyota Highlander in error". We got him to inform us exactly where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Hullbridge half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he said thanks a lot for arriving so quickly. As we were coming back to the depot we noticed two girls on the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. So we got out 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.
