Out of fuel in Leatherhead Common (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your vehicle. They will take care of the typical troubles that may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations pretty expediently.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Leatherhead Common - Wrong Fuel in Car Leatherhead Common

I'd had a great day cycling during my holiday and was feeling delighted the following morning as I set out to help a new couple vacationing in Leatherhead Common. They'd stopped after filling diesel in their luxury Nissan Maxima, and were around an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and laughed while I heard to the woman berating her man for being so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this happens constantly in Surrey and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he yet still got an ear bashing by his better half. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed good-bye and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
