Out of Fuel Support
Run out of fuel in Snigs End (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to fill up your automobile. They will be able to fix the usual problems which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to take care of in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in your fuel can certainly bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases rather expediently.
Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

A woman living in Snigs End phoned us after she had managed to get her wrong fueled car to work. She had put petrol in her diesel daughter's Land Rover Defender and, like countless before her, assumed that she would be able to simply top up the vehicle with diesel and it would run alright. The engine was coughing and then it died when she got to the entrance of her work. We soon went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it fixed in an hour while she was in the office. She came outside when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely delighted you fixed my vehicle."

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
