It was around eight pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and I were resting there going over the football rankings, ready for the 6th call for the day to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Stoneclough and put the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT rental car in error. She was somewhat distressed it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a protected position and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we were able to get to the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive away calm and much less concerned. Yet another job in Greater Manchester done well in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Greater Manchester we are identifying increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to motorists not understanding the way to use it (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you discover youself to be in this predicament don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations very easily.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Greater Manchester for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Stoneclough (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your vehicle. They can also deal with any of the normal problems which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Stoneclough - Stoneclough Vehicle Misfuel

Last friday a motorist contacted us just after his Fiat broke down along a road in Stoneclough. He had unintentionally put petrol in his diesel motor and had managed to drive to the road before having to pull up. It was actually early in the day and our technician, who lives not far away, reached him in about ten minutes. We managed to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel back in to the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, especially at 2 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
