It was before 8 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and me were resting there discussing the weekend's sports, waiting around for the seventh job to come in. Before long we had a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Westleigh and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Vauxhall rental by mistake. She was very affected apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a secure space and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Greater Manchester done well in my opinion!

Services We Provide:

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Greater Manchester we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it asap. And definitely be careful not to start up the engine - not even to shift it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol may trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases fairly quickly.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Greater Manchester to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Westleigh (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Greater Manchester Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the common problems that can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Westleigh - Westleigh Wrong Fuel Assist

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon cycling during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I set off to help a young couple who were holidaying in Westleigh. They had pulled over after inserting diesel in their Dacia, and they were about an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked as I heard to the lady telling her hubby off for being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this takes place quite frequently in Greater Manchester and that it is nothing to be anxious about, and yet he still had an ear bashing by his better half. Poor guy. Anyhow, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed so long and thought about what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
