What Running Out of Gas on Highway 1 Near Surrey Actually Looks Like
Eastbound on Highway 1 near the 160th Street interchange, the fuel warning light has been on for 12 kilometres. Traffic slows in front of you and the engine cuts. You coast to the right shoulder, hazard lights on, cars and trucks passing 3 metres to your left. You’re 8 kilometres from the nearest Langley exit.
You call Tow Jet Towing. We confirm your direction of travel and the nearest overpass marker, tell you a driver is 35 minutes away, and remind you to stay in your vehicle until we arrive. The driver delivers 12 litres of regular unleaded, the tank accepts it, the engine starts — and you’re off the shoulder and moving in under an hour.
2. Premium gasoline (91/94 octane) is available for vehicles that require higher-octane fuel.
3. We also provide diesel fuel for diesel-powered cars, trucks, vans, and commercial vehicles.
4. Our emergency fuel delivery includes enough fuel to reach the nearest gas station, typically 10–15 litres.
5. This service is intended for roadside emergencies and is not available for bulk fuel supply or refuelling.
6. Our trained technicians ensure the correct fuel type is delivered safely, helping you get back on the road quickly.
2. Starting the engine allows the incorrect fuel to circulate through the fuel system, increasing the risk of serious damage.
3. If caught early, a small amount of incorrect fuel can often be resolved with a professional drain and flush service.
4. Continuing to drive can damage critical components such as the fuel injectors, fuel pump, and engine, leading to costly repairs.
5. Contact our team immediately, and we will safely tow your vehicle to a trusted repair facility for proper fuel system cleaning.
6. Acting quickly can save you thousands of dollars in repair costs and help prevent long-term engine damage.

Frequently Asked Questions — Fuel Delivery
How much fuel do you bring?
We bring approximately 10–15 litres — enough to get you to the nearest gas station. This is a get-you-moving service, not a fill-up delivery.
What if I don't know what fuel my car takes?
Check the fuel cap — it’s usually labelled ‘unleaded,’ ‘premium,’ or ‘diesel.’ The fuel door may also have a label. If you’re unsure, check your owner’s manual or call us and we’ll help identify it.
Can you deliver diesel?
Yes. Confirm ‘diesel’ clearly when you call — our drivers carry the correct fuel type based on what’s dispatched.
What if I put the wrong fuel in?
Do not start the engine. Call us immediately. We’ll tow you to a mechanic who can drain the fuel system before damage occurs.
How long will you take to arrive?
Our average across Metro Vancouver is 30–45 minutes from your call.
Is fuel delivery available on the highway?
Yes. Highway shoulder calls are handled regularly. Stay in your vehicle with hazards on, and give us your direction of travel and the nearest overpass or exit sign.
Is fuel delivery available at night?
Yes. 24/7/365.
What if the car still won't start after fuel?
If the engine won’t catch after adding fuel, there may be a secondary issue — fuel pump, ignition, or a flooded engine from repeated cranking. We can tow you to a mechanic to diagnose.
