It was around ten pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there going over the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Simister and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes hire car by mistake. She was quite troubled apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected position and, as it was only a few minutes from our van, we could find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Greater Manchester done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Greater Manchester we are noticing a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the practical skills and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Greater Manchester for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages.

Fuel Rescue Simister - Simister Vehicle Misfuel

I enjoyed a great afternoon cycling during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the next day as I set out to aid a new family who were vacationing in Simister. They'd stopped after putting petrol into their Mitsubishi, and they were close to half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the wife telling off her partner for being so confused. "How could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass constantly in Greater Manchester and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate boy. At any rate, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed farewell and thought about what my missus would do to me in the event that I did the very same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
