Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Greater Manchester we are noticing increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And obviously do not start the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can potentially cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases rather swiftly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Greater Manchester to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, provided that we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Altrincham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill the car. They will deal with any of the typical issues that may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Altrincham - Altrincham Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had a great evening fishing during my day off and was feeling pleased the following morning as I headed out to assist a young couple holidaying in Altrincham. They had broken down after inserting diesel in their Volvo, and were approximately an hour away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for being so foolish. "Precisely how could you actually manage to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this situation takes place all the time in Greater Manchester and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I drained all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While they drove down the road I waved goodbye and thought about what my wife would ask me if ever I made the very same error... I would personally never ever live it down!

A customer from Altrincham with a full car of kids in her diesel Honda had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She called us crying and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that the vehicle should be ok and that she would be up and running soon. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the kids on board."
