AdBlue Contamination

All over Cheshire we are noticing progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly don't crank the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you may probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol may well trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances quite quickly.

Take note however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Cheshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Chelford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will deal with any of the normal issues which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

We were called by a man whose Mercedes had stopped on a road after a misfuel. "I confused the pumps and put petrol instead of diesel in my car by mistake. These guys arrived and fixed the matter right after my car died." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the engine thoroughly and the motorist could go on with his deliveries.

This really was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 2:30am and almost noone was around. It had become rather dead thus far, and Paul and I were sitting around reading through several old magazines. It was a rare peaceful moment in Cheshire. Actually it was indeed so quiet that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end stated: "I only just finished my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the Lexus in error". I instructed him to inform us just where the vehicle was located and we set off, arriving in Chelford under half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine and he thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. While we were returning to base we found two young women on the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Chelford - Chelford Fuel Drain

A gentleman phoned us from Chelford saying he mistakenly pumped the wrong fuel in to his diesel Audi. "What a nightmare! How could I put petrol in my beautiful diesel car!" It took the fuel drainer around 50 minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel from the vehicle. He completely purged the fuel system and then put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him dealer rates to have the job properly performed.
