It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and me were resting talking over the recent golf, waiting for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Peel Hall and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault rental in error. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to find her quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and less concerned. Yet another job in Greater Manchester well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Greater Manchester we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Contact us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel is likely to trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations fairly quickly.

Take note that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Greater Manchester to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Peel Hall (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your vehicle in the event that 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 attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your car. They can also fix any of the standard troubles which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
