It was just after 9 pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and me were seated talking about the tennis, prepared for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Felixstowe and filled petrol in her diesel Skoda lease car in error. She was fairly affected by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, also that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away relaxed and not so stressed. Another misfuel correction in Suffolk done well in my opinion!

Offered Services:

Assisting you get back on the road is our main goal.

Wrong Fuel in your Tank - Your diesel engine filled with petrol is more challenging than a petrol tank filled with diesel. Engine may start to splutter and may stall. A good deal of fumes may be noticed too. But whatever it is, we're ready to get you up and running.

An engine contaminated with water - If you fill up your vehicle with water and not with the wrong fuel you are also in danger of losing your engine. Engine filled with water should be completely drained. Without draining, it will get rusty, and other problems will soon follow. Our professionals will drain your engine without much sweat. We also offer assistance with filter replacement.

Adding AdBlue to your fuel tank - AdBlue contamination takes place when you put AdBlue in your fuel tank, generally by accident. Vehicle owners do not have sufficient knowledge about AdBlue. That's why they are in this problem now. Unlike what many have claimed that it is an additive, the reality is AdBlue is a liquid that helps reducethe emission of harmful smoke in your exhaust and this must have a separate tank. More motorists are falling foul of AdBlue contamination every day, and it's our job to solve it for you.

Red Diesel Contamination - Mostly this happens because of accident. It can easily happen if you are distracted or exhausted, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. If it happens to you, we'll deal with it fast and efficiently.

Driving with old fuel - Old fuel is not good for the engine. If your vehicle hasn't been driven for a while, its fuel gets degraded. Additionally, you might put in a fuel stored long ago. The engine doesn't run smooth and well. To get the things back on track, drain the degraded fuel from the tank. We are able to do that for you.

We Get you Going Again

Wrong Fuel in Car Felixstowe - Felixstowe Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a wonderful evening fishing on my afternoon off and was feeling pleased the following day as I headed out to help a new couple who were on vacation in Felixstowe. They'd broken down after filling the wrong fuel in their BMW, and were about half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their location and smirked as I heard to the wife telling off her spouse for actually being so confused. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this goes on on a regular basis in Suffolk and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, and yet he still got his ear bent. Poor guy. Anyway, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove away I mouthed good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the very same error... I would never ever hear the end of it!
