Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Greater Manchester we are encountering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously don't start the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations very easily.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying in the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in Greater Manchester to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Irlam (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Greater Manchester Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up the car. They are also able to handle the most common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Irlam - Irlam Wrong Fuel

I'd had a great day golfing during the weekend and felt delighted with myself the following day as I set off to aid a young couple on holiday in Irlam. They had stopped after inserting petrol in their Renault, and they were around an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for being so silly. "Just how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this problem goes on regularly in Greater Manchester and that it's nothing to stress about, and yet he in spite of everything got an earful. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and wondered what my missus would say to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never live it down!
