It was around 9 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting talking over the weekend's football rankings, ready for the sixth job to come in. Finally we received a call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Winwick and put petrol in her diesel Skoda hire car by mistake. The poor lady was quite agitated it seemed, telling me "I can not believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe space and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from the office, we were able to arrive at her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and a lot less anxious. One more job in Cheshire well done in my mind!

Services We Offer:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Cheshire we are identifying more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to people not being totally sure how to work with it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you end up in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the practical competence and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases very swiftly.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually 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 moored near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank lying at the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Cheshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Winwick (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to fix the standard issues that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
