It was just before 9 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and me were sitting talking over the rugby rankings, waiting around for the next job to come in. Inevitably we received the call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Kitts Moss and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volvo lease car by mistake. The poor thing was quite affected apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe position and, because it was only a few miles from where we were, we were able to reach the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and much less apprehensive. Yet another job in Greater Manchester well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Greater Manchester we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And of course don't switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank may well cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Greater Manchester to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Kitts Moss (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will handle the usual issues which can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Kitts Moss - Kitts Moss Fuel Removal

A guy had stopped just off a street in Kitts Moss. His Volvo car had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was the problem till he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the day before and that must have been precisely why.
