It was just before ten pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and me were relaxing talking over the weekend's rugby rankings, prepared for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Wilmslow and filled petrol in a diesel Honda lease car in error. She was somewhat distressed apparently, crying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things regrettably can happen. She managed to move the car to a protected spot and, since it was just a few minutes from us, we could arrive at the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and less worried. One more misfuel correction in Cheshire done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cheshire we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not knowing the right way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to deal with in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel will result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases rather quickly.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Cheshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Wilmslow (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) and refill your vehicle. They will deal with the most common problems which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.
