It was just after 5 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and me were seated commenting on the weekend's golf, prepared for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Bollington Cross and put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT rental car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly happen. She was able to get the car to a protected position and, because it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the woman quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my mind!

Services We Deliver:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Cheshire we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol is likely to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations rather quickly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Cheshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Bollington Cross (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the most common issues which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
