It was before 8 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing talking about the weekend's footy results, waiting for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we received the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Hoo Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda lease car. She was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we were able to find the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could return to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off relaxed and less concerned. A job in Cheshire well done in my mind!

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Cheshire we have encountered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people not understanding the right way to use it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely don't start up the car - not even to move it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel is likely to trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations rather easily.
Take note however that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have a fuel container at the back of your garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Cheshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.
Re-Fueling Services
Out of fuel in Hoo Green (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will take care of the common problems that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Hoo Green - Hoo Green Fuel Drain
A customer from Hoo Green with her children in her diesel Citroen had put £30 of petrol at the petrol station. She called us crying and extremely distraught as she had never wrong fuelled and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that the vehicle should be okay and that she would be back in action in no time at all. When we arrived she was visible upset but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the little ones on board."
