The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Bloxham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They will handle the normal problems that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases fairly expediently.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a bright Sunday and I was off to assist an older woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel maroon Lexus IS in Bloxham. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded along a backwater road en route to see her grandchildren. I popped her location into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I turned up at the car and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was doing the work she said to me, "Now I'm getting fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I had only purchased it a few days ago because my previous car, which I owned for in excess of 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Oxfordshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Bloxham - Wrong Fuel in Car Bloxham

I enjoyed a terrific day hiking on my day off and felt cheerful with myself the next day as I headed out to help a new family who were on holiday in Bloxham. They broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their rugged VW GTI, and the car was close to an hour away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman telling her partner off for being so foolish. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this problem occurs everyday in Oxfordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he still got an ear bashing by his better half. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed good bye and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the same blunder... I'd never hear the end of it!

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
