Fueldoctor
Fueldoctor? Do not start the engine. The tank is drained, the lines are flushed, fresh fuel goes in and the system is primed where the car stands. Call 01293 248666 — a mobile technician comes to the vehicle anywhere across CA1 to CA6. Call-out £89 to £199, drain £199 to £1,999.
Straight answer on what we are
A mobile fuel drain operation covering CA1 to CA6. No garage, no forecourt, no Carlisle address. A technician and a van, dispatched by people who know the area, reached on 01293 248666. If that is not what you need, we will say so on the call rather than take the booking.

Mobile drain and flush, on site, usually inside the hour.
Three questions that tell us most of the story
Did the engine start? How far did it run? Which fuel went in? The first two describe how far contamination has travelled along tank, lift pump, filter, high-pressure pump and injectors. The third describes how it behaves along the way: petrol thins the lubrication a diesel pump needs, while diesel in a petrol engine fouls plugs and injectors instead.
Step by step
- Ignition off and stay off No starting, no accessory position, no quick test. Contamination still sitting in the tank is the best case, and it lasts exactly until the engine turns over.
- Keep the vehicle still Even rolling it a few metres can move fuel toward the pickup. If the spot is safe, the spot is right.
- Look after people first Hazard lights on. Passengers out and clear if there is passing traffic. On a forecourt, let the staff know what has happened.
- Phone 01293 248666 Give the vehicle, the fuel that went in, an estimate of the amount, and whether it ran. The price comes back on the same call.
- Extraction on the spot The tank is drained, the lines flushed, clean fuel added and the system primed — anywhere across CA1 to CA6.
- Paperwork and the waste An invoice for you; the contaminated fuel leaves with us as controlled waste under a transfer note.

Questions we get asked
How long will I be waiting?
Arrival depends where you are across CA1 to CA6 and what is already running. You get a realistic window on the call rather than an optimistic one.
Can I just top it up with the right fuel?
No. Dilution does not fix contamination, and driving to a filling station to try it is the mile that turns a drain into a repair.
Is there an out-of-hours surcharge?
The call-out is the call-out. Whatever the total is, you hear it on the phone before anyone travels.
Do I need to stay with the vehicle?
Usually yes, so we can hand it back to you running. If you cannot stay, say so on the call and we will work out how to do it.
