It was about 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were seated there commenting on the weekend's tennis, waiting for the seventh call of the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell filling station in Markland Hill and filled petrol in a diesel Renault lease car by mistake. She was fairly irritated it seemed, saying "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing in.

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Greater Manchester we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of people not understanding the right way to use it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In the instance that you have started the car you would probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to address in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container in the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Greater Manchester for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Markland Hill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Greater Manchester Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to refill the car. They can also handle any of the standard troubles that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Markland Hill - Markland Hill Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a great afternoon fishing on my off day and was feeling contented the following day as I set off to help a young couple who were holidaying in Markland Hill. They had pulled over after filling the wrong fuel into their Volkswagen, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and laughed while I listened to the woman telling her man off for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this problem happens all the time in Greater Manchester and that it's nothing to stress about, and yet he yet still got his ear bent by his wife. Poor guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some right fuel. As they drove away I mouthed so long and considered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
