It was before 8 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting commenting on the recent footy rankings, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we got a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Caldy and filled petrol in her diesel Porsche hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe position and, since it was only a short distance away from our van, we were able to arrive at her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and less stressed. A misfuel correction in Merseyside well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competence :

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Merseyside we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to motorists not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases very simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the back of your garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Merseyside for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Caldy (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Merseyside Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your automobile. They will be able to deal with the standard issues that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Caldy - Caldy Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a fantastic evening cycling during my day off and felt pleased the following working day as I was on the way to aid a young family away in Caldy. They'd conked out after inserting diesel into their SEAT, and the car was about half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this goes on everyday in Merseyside and that it's nothing at all to stress about, nevertheless he still got an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I drained all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
