Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can fix any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Cheshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And of course do not start the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will often bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and business premises in Cheshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Greenbank (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to take care of the usual issues that might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Greenbank - Greenbank Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a fantastic day fishing on my off day and was feeling delighted the next day as I set out to help a new family on vacation in Greenbank. They stopped after filling petrol in their Mazda, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her man off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this goes on frequently in Cheshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to worry about, but he all the same got an ear bashing by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted so long and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would never ever live it down!
