It was around 10 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing there going over the recent footy, prepared for the sixth job of the day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Wood End and put petrol in a diesel Suzuki lease car by mistake. The poor lady was quite distressed apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was just a few minutes away from us, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and less anxious. A misfuel correction in Greater Manchester well done in my mind!

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Greater Manchester we have discovered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And absolutely don't turn over the motor - not even to move it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel may well trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases very easily.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank laying at the back of your premises with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Greater Manchester to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Wood End (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and fill the car. They can also take care of the usual troubles which could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Wood End - Wood End Fuel Rescue

A man had broken down just off a road in Wood End. His Volvo motor had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was faulty until eventually he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I cannot believe that I didn't realise that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
