Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your automobile. They will deal with the normal issues which could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can certainly bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations quite quickly.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Wednesday and we were on the way to help an elder sweetheart who put contaminated fuel in her diesel classic BMW Z8 in Wasp Green. I'd been advised she had driven away from the filling station and was pulled up in a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her family. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour. I got to the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had just purchased it a couple of days ago when my old one, which I had had for over 25 years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain completed and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Surrey lady!

I had enjoyed a perfect afternoon fishing on my off day and was feeling contented the following morning as I was en route to aid a young family on vacation in Wasp Green. They'd broken down after adding petrol in their cobalt blue VW Passat, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself while I heard to the wife telling her partner off for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you even manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing goes on regularly in Surrey and that it's really nothing at all to fret about, however he still got an earful by his better half. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive off I waved farewell and thought about what my missus would tell me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never live it down!
