Out of Fuel Services
Out of fuel in Stroud Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Essex Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill the car. They will take care of the most common troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations fairly easily.
Be aware however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Tales from our own Stroud Green team:
Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Stroud Green
Now I am certainly not that excited about carrying out work on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids filled with a lovely Sunday roast cooked by the better half, and I was on the way to help a gentleman who had filled the wrong petrol in his uncle's Skoda Superb. He was only in Stroud Green and so it wouldn't be long before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived at the rear of the car and started work he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on stuff and didn't grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I created some problems by simply driving it?" I determined that truth be told there probably should not be harm and that I would get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in the correct fuel, and then another content customer could carry on with their trip without any subsequent difficulty. He did not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what helps make earning a living on Sundays in Essex a tiny bit easier in my opinion!
