Run Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Hullavington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your car. They are also able to handle any of the normal troubles that could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel will result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases quite quickly.
Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)

- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
