It was around seven pm on a Friday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated there commenting on the tennis results, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Manchester Airport and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen rental car in error. She was fairly troubled it seemed, telling me "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure space and, because it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we were able to find the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and not so anxious. Another job in Greater Manchester done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Greater Manchester we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank will often lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases rather easily.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of the garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Greater Manchester for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Manchester Airport (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your automobile. They will fix any of the standard troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

We managed to get rid of the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again in to the car. "Genuine kudos to you for your immediate response, especially at 5 a.m., I am grateful for it."
