Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your vehicle.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances quite simply.

Remember though that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Tuesday and we were off to assist an older lovely lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel buff Jeep Commander in Bucknell. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a backwater lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped her location into the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I reached the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was working she told me, "I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I had only just got it a short while ago because my old car, which I used for about twenty years, eventually died on me". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and said thank you. What a delightful Shropshire woman!

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.
