It was before 6 pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing there discussing the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the seventh telephone call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Kimcote and put the wrong fuel in her diesel metallic yellow VW GLI lease car. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, stating "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Even though we got very wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less worried.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may well result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases very swiftly.
Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.
Waste Fuel Disposal

We have been called out to several private and business premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.
Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

What a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and I was on my way to assist an older sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel mint green Cadillac XLR-V in Kimcote. She told us that she had left the petrol station and was broken down on a country lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and got there inside 60 minutes. I got to the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was working she explained, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only just acquired it a week back right after my old car, which I used for over 25 years, inevitably stopped working". I got the job completed and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Leicestershire woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Kimcote - Wrong Fuel in Car Kimcote
I'd had a great day golfing on my day off and was feeling contented the following morning as I set out to aid a new couple who were on vacation in Kimcote. They had stopped after putting petrol in their metallic red Honda Civic GX, and were about an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal telling off her husband for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs on a regular basis in Leicestershire and that it's in reality nothing to stress about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and pondered on what my wife would say to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I'd personally never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Kimcote - Fuel Rescue Kimcote
A driver from Kimcote with her children in her diesel daughter's Audi Cabriolet had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She called us sobbing and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what might happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that the car would be alright and that she would be in action quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Specifically with the youngsters in the back."

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.

- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
