Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Cheshire we are noticing a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it right away. And absolutely take care not to crank the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can potentially lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations pretty quickly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank lying at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Cheshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Ashton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to refill the car. They are also able to fix any of the most common problems that could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Ashton - Ashton Petrol in Diesel

A motorist had stopped near a road in Ashton. His Renault motor had stopped running and he'd no idea what was faulty until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got no sleep the night before and that must have been precisely why.
