It was about six pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's footy results, waiting around for the next call of the day to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Clotton and filled petrol in her diesel Toyota rental in error. The poor lady was fairly distressed it seemed, stating "I just can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe area and, because it was no more than a short distance away from us, we were able to get to the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away contented and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel
All around Cheshire we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the car.
So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course don't start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank may bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.
Remember however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Have a fuel tank lying at the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Cheshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

A customer from Clotton with her little ones in her diesel Dacia had put £42 of petrol at the station. She contacted us crying and really distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle . We assured her that everything should be fine and that she would be back in action very quickly. When we arrived she was visible upset but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked.
