It was close to seven pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Brian and I were seated talking about the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the 6th fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Locking Stumps and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW rental in error. She was very distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure position and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home calm and a lot less stressed.

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any associated problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in the event that you have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue is certainly harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to start the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can potentially produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances rather simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Cheshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly drain it.
