It was after 6 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing there discussing the recent footy, at the ready for the 8th call that day to arrive. Eventually we got the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Lach Dennis and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus rental. The poor lady was rather distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from our van, we were able to find her rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and less anxious. One more job in Cheshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Cheshire we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly never crank the car - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Cheshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Lach Dennis (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up the car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also deal with any of the typical troubles which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
