It was about 9 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and me were seated talking over the recent sports results, waiting around for the seventh call to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Trafford Park and put petrol in her diesel Toyota hire car. The poor thing was fairly affected by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. A fuel drain in Greater Manchester done well in my opinion!

Services We Provide:

Listed below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Greater Manchester we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of people not knowing the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If you have started the car you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases quite easily.

Take note that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting in the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Greater Manchester for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Trafford Park (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Greater Manchester Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your car. They can also take care of any of the most common problems which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.
