The above symptoms are usually an indication of wrong fuel in a vehicle and if we discover that yours is the same problem, we will fix it right away since our mechanics bring the necessary tools and fresh fuel with them. These three reasons should convince you why we should serve you. First and foremost, our teams are knowledgeable in dealing with your situation and can get you back on the road in no time.

Other Services
Besides draining out the incorrect fuel in a car, we provide other services linked to that. To name one is getting rid of the contaminated fuel the proper and lawful way. Disposing of this contaminated fuel is not allowed to anyone unless you are qualified to do so. If these fuels are thrown just anywhere, they could damage the environment and possibly contaminate the local water supply. We have all it takes to do so since we are not merely accredited by the Environment Agency but also have the ideal equipment for it.
Disposing of the contaminated fuel is a completely different service that we provide to our private and commercial customers at some fee. All you should do is give us access to where the contaminated fuel is stored, it doesn't matter whether it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or container since we can get to it and get rid of it safely and securely.
AdBlue and Water Contamination
Putting the incorrect fuel in your vehicle isn’t the only reason for engine problems. The presence of water in your fuel also makes your car to show similar symptoms, which include: lack of power, trouble running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. This is a serious issue that can totally cause harm to the fuel filters.
One more thing which can cause similar symptoms is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your vehicle behave abnormally. Therefore, it should just be utilized by somebody who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.
In these situations, we can give the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, like in the case of filling your tank with the wrong fuel. It doesn't matter what the cause is, we can get you back on your way. We can also replace those fuel filters compromised by water.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Lambs Cross - Fuel Rescue Lambs Cross
It was close to 10 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were relaxing commenting on the rugby results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. Before long we received the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Lambs Cross lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was pretty irritated apparently, saying "I cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, seeing as it was just a short distance off from the office, we were able to find the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing in. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive home satisfied and not so stressed. One more job done well in my opinion!
