It was after six pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and I were seated there commenting on the weekend's golf, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Hale Barns and put petrol in a diesel Skoda lease car. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this can happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure space and, because it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to reach the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could return to the motel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home satisfied and not so anxious.

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Greater Manchester we are finding more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not knowing the right way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously be careful not to start up the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases fairly expediently.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking bay we can reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Greater Manchester for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Hale Barns (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Greater Manchester Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will be able to deal with any of the normal issues that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Hale Barns - Hale Barns Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a terrific day hiking during my holiday and felt contented with myself the following day as I was en route to help a new family who were on vacation in Hale Barns. They pulled over after filling diesel into their SEAT, and were close to an hour away. I turned up at their location and laughed as I heard to the girl berating her hubby for being so confused. "Precisely how could you even be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this situation happens constantly in Greater Manchester and that it is nothing at all to worry about, and yet he yet still got his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. At any rate, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted good bye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I'd never live it down!
