It was just before seven pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were seated talking over the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Free Town and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Honda rental car in error. She was fairly irritated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the car into a protected area and, because it was just a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away relaxed and not so concerned. One more fuel drain in Greater Manchester well done in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Greater Manchester we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not being aware of how to work with it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can certainly lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases very quickly.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your premises containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Greater Manchester for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Free Town (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to refill your automobile. They can also handle the common troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Free Town - Free Town Wrong Fuel Drain

A man had stopped off a road in Free Town. His Nissan car had stopped working and he'd no idea what was wrong until eventually he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten very little sleep the evening before and that could have been precisely why.
