Run Out of Fuel Assistance
Run out of fuel in Pontshill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car. They are also able to deal with any of the usual troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to deal with in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases rather quickly.
Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Wrong Fuel in Car in HR9 Postcode - Pontshill Misfueling
The driver of a old Hyundai Equus was regretful that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel automobile when he got as far as the street and it coughed and stopped. "I've gone and put petrol in my diesel vehicle," is what he informed us the initial time he rang. To be truthful, when he initially called us he said he'd shop around, but he called us back shortly because our price and on-scene times were the most appropriate. Obviously, our engineer had him once again carrying out his deliveries within the period we'd cited.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Pontshill
I am not ever that keen on carrying out work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just departed the wife and kids filled with a fantastic dinner prepared by the missus, and I was off to deal with a man because he filled the wrong petrol in his beloved BMW 745. He was situated in Pontshill so I was with him very quickly. Just as I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Praise God! I incredibly had my concentration on other stuff and didn't ascertain I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on some problems by simply starting it?" I stated that truth be told there probably should not be any damage and that also I would get the fuel drained right away. Obviously I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with some correct fuel, and then another contented motorist was able to carry on with his ride without any subsequent hassle. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that is exactly what helps make carrying out work on weekends in Herefordshire that little easier for me!

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.

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

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.
- 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.
- 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.
