Fuel Rescue Greave - Greave Wrong Fuel in Car

Just had a good night's sleep! 7:00 am on a rainy Tuesday and I was en route to assist an old woman after she had put petrol in her diesel Mitsubishi in Greave. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up in a country lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I got her location plugged into the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was working she said, "I am becoming quite absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel as I'd just bought it several days back after my other one, which I had owned for about thirty years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Greater Manchester lady!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Greater Manchester we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to people being unsure of the way to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely never start up the motor - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances fairly expediently.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container placed in the rear of your premises full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Greater Manchester to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Greave (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your car. They will be able to deal with any of the usual issues that can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Assist Greave - Greave Vehicle Misfuel

A person contacted us from his home on a street in Greave. He explained, "My vehicle (a Peugeot) is not starting and is making awful noises when I flip the key."

We got there quickly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel.

Recent Fuel Drains in Greave

A few stories:

A teen who had recently got his licence had misfueled his Honda by getting unleaded in the diesel car at the station in Greave. He said, "This is only the third time I have filled up my vehicle from the time when I got it and I have no idea of how to handle it." He was worried as his step father had just purchased him the car. He discovered us on the net and so called us without delay, worried about what he should do. Our man on the call advised him that we could be with him inside 45 minutes and to not do anything to the car while waiting. We did the drain on his car and he stated how astonished he was it was handled so swiftly and no problem at all.

Fuel Removal Greave - Greave Petrol in Diesel

A young lady living in Greave phoned us as soon as she managed to get her misfueled car to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW and, like countless before her, assumed that she could basically fill up her car with diesel and it would be fine. The vehicle was chugging and then it died when she came to the entrance of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it resolved in an hour or so whilst she was in the office. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm really delighted you repaired my car."

Petrol in Diesel Greave - Greave Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman phoned us from Greave saying he foolishly pumped petrol into his diesel Mercedes. "What a nightmare! How could I put unleaded in my diesel car!" It only took our engineer about fifty minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel out of the car. He totally flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him dealer prices to have the job properly completed.
