It was about six pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were relaxing there commenting on the rugby rankings, at the ready for the 8th call to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Greenbank and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai hire car by mistake. The poor thing was fairly affected apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at the woman swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to return to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and not so apprehensive. Yet another job in Cheshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cheshire we are noticing progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Contact us if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will produce idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations fairly easily.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Cheshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Greenbank (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) and fill up your car. They will deal with any of the standard issues which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Greenbank - Greenbank Wrong Fuel Doctor

A motorist had conked out off a street in Greenbank. His Porsche motor had stopped running and he'd no idea what was faulty right up until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten no rest the night before and that must have been the reason why.
