Services We Provide:
Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.
AdBlue Contamination
All over Cheshire we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not understanding how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.
Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Whenever you end up in this predicament don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the technical expertise and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations rather expediently.
Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have a fuel tank in the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in Cheshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it for you.
Run Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Picton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the typical issues that could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Picton - Picton Wrong Fuel in Car
Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a warm Wednesday and I was en route to help an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel Suzuki in Picton. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a country lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she explained, "I have been becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd only just acquired it several days ago because my other car, which I had for about twenty five years, eventually broke down". I completed the drain and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. What a precious Cheshire woman!

Recent Fuel Drains in Picton
A few of the usual stories we hear from many of our technicians in Picton:
Now I'm certainly not too interested in working Sundays, and a while back was no different. I'd just left home after a fantastic roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a gentleman who had put the wrong petrol in his Nissan. He was located in Picton thus it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on stuff and failed to realise I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I created any damage by starting it?" I explained that truth be told there probably should not be any kind of harm and that also I'd remove the fuel right away. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and yet another delighted customer was able to continue their journey without any hassle. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Cheshire that little better for me personally!
Fuel Drain Picton - Picton Petrol in Diesel
A customer from Picton with a full car of little ones in her diesel Skoda had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the Sainsburys station. She phoned us sobbing and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what would happen to her car because of it. We assured her that the car would be ok and that she would be ready to go quickly. When we got there she was visible upset but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the kids in the back."
