It was just after eight pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing going over the recent footy results, at the ready for the next telephone call of the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Byley and put petrol in a diesel Volvo rental car. She was pretty agitated apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure position and, as it was just a few minutes off from our van, we were able to find her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off contented and less worried. Another job in Cheshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Cheshire we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And definitely never start up the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to handle in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will often cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container placed in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Cheshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Byley (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the normal problems which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Byley - Byley Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer had broken down just off a road in Byley. His Dacia engine had stopped functioning and he'd no clue what was the problem till he realised 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 can not believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten very little rest the day before and that must have been why.
