It was close to 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated there talking over the weekend's sports results, waiting around for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Feckenham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen lease car. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure position and, because it was just a few miles from our van, we could arrive at the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could go home to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less anxious. Another job in Worcestershire well done in my books!

Offered Services:
Here are the top services we provide to our customers.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Worcestershire we are discovering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not knowing how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.
So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Give us a call if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to deal with in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases very simply.
Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Got a fuel container placed in the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial premises in Worcestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.
Re-Fueling Services
Run out of fuel in Feckenham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and refill your car. They will be able to deal with the most common troubles that can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Feckenham - Feckenham Wrong Fuel in Car
Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Sunday and we were on my way to help an older lady after she had put petrol in her diesel Mercedes in Feckenham. I'd been informed she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded along a country road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and got there within an hour or so. I reached the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car taking diesel since I'd just purchased it several days ago when my previous car, which I used for about thirty years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain done and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Worcestershire woman!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Feckenham - Feckenham Petrol in Diesel
A young lady from Feckenham with her kids in her diesel Mitsubishi had filled her car with £30 of petrol at the Shell filling station. She phoned us sobbing and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that everything would be okay and that she would be back up and running soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the little ones in the back."
