Your company had one of your technicians out to me in half an hour and the car was working once again before you know it. Your company had me on my way once more after only an hour or so. Great service."

Boat Fuel Drains
If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.
AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Herefordshire we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the automobile.
So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?
Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And most definitely never crank the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Any time you find yourself in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Pixley - Fuel Rescue Pixley
This really was what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was around. It was rather quiet up to now, and me and John were loafing around looking at a few old newspapers. That was a rare calm time in Herefordshire. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that when the phone rang it made me start! The motorist explained: "I only just ended my night shift and incredibly poured petrol in the sunflower yellow Peugeot 207". I instructed him to tell us just where he was situated and we left, getting to him in Pixley no more than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the car. He said many thanks for getting there so fast. While we were heading back to the office we noticed two girls on the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
