Paul and me were sitting there talking over the weekend's football results, prepared for the 8th telephone call to come in. Before long we got the call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Widnes and filled petrol in her diesel MG hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was very distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this do happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from the office, we were able to get to the lady swiftly.

Services Our Company Offers:
These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Cheshire we are identifying a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the vehicle.
So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank is going to trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations very expediently.
Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel tank placed in the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Cheshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, providing we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.
Out of Fuel Support
Run out of fuel in Widnes (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to fill your car. They can also fix any of the usual troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Widnes - Widnes Wrong Fuel Drain
A customer from Widnes with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Suzuki had put £42 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She contacted us sobbing and really upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what would happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that everything should be okay and that she would be back in action quickly. When we got there she was visible distressed but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the kids in the back."
