It was about ten pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's sports rankings, at the ready for the next call for the day to come in. Inevitably we got a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Middleton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe area and, since it was no more than a few miles from us, we could reach her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home satisfied and a lot less concerned. A misfuel correction in Greater Manchester well done in my mind!

We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Greater Manchester we have discovered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And definitely never turn over the car - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to cause idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances very easily.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking bay we can reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Greater Manchester to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Middleton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They can also fix the most common problems that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Middleton - Middleton Wrong Fuel Drain

Yesterday a youngster called us after his MG ground to a halt on a street in Middleton. He had unintentionally put the incorrect fuel in his diesel motor and drove to the street before having to pull up. It was really early in the morning and our technical engineer, who lives not far away, reached him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, particularly at 2 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
