It was before 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring! James and I were resting there talking over the weekend's tennis, waiting around for the 8th call for the day to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Brereton Green and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT rental car in error. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things often happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we were able to reach her rather quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and a lot less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Cheshire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people being unsure of how to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol will lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations rather expediently.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container in the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and business properties in Cheshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Brereton Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill the car. They are also able to fix any of the standard problems which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Brereton Green - Brereton Green Petrol in Diesel

A gentleman had conked out just off a street in Brereton Green. His Mazda motor had stopped operating and he had no idea what was awry until eventually he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got virtually no sleep the evening before and that must have been the key reason why.
