It was just before eight pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were resting discussing the recent rugby results, prepared for the 6th job that day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Whelley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volvo rental. She was pretty agitated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, because it was just a few minutes away from the office, we were able to reach the woman without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off calm and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Greater Manchester well done in my opinion!

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Greater Manchester we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly don't turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We managed to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again in to the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your immediate response, particularly at 6 a.m., I am grateful for it."
