It was after five pm on a Monday and although we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and me were sitting commenting on the weekend's golf, waiting around for the 6th call that day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Eaton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot rental car in error. She was very distressed apparently, crying "I can not believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was only a short distance away from where we were, we were able to reach her without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home contented and less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my opinion!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cheshire we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely do not crank the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you may probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations pretty simply.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container laying at the back of the garden with old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Cheshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Eaton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to take care of the usual problems which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Eaton - Eaton Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a terrific evening golfing during my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the following day as I set off to aid a young family who were on holiday in Eaton. They broken down after filling petrol in their Toyota, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and laughed as I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this situation takes place regularly in Cheshire and that it's nothing at all to stress about, but he in spite of everything had an earful by his better half. Poor lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd never ever live it down!
