A guy broken down on a street in Latchford needed a fuel drain roughly a few weeks ago. His Smart was stopped on the side of the road after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was calm when he rang us but a little concerned to get his car away from the road because he was generating considerable traffic. We got to him inside 15 minutes seeing that our technician was in in close proximty of Latchford and had done his previous job. He said, "I do not believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and stopped right here! My car was so spluttery I just had to pull over and after that it just conked."

Services We Provide:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Cheshire we have found increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not knowing how to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely never turn over the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel can easily lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances fairly easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Cheshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Latchford (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up the car. They will take care of any of the typical problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Latchford - Latchford Fuel Drain

A person phoned us from his residence on a road in Latchford. He explained, "My vehicle (a Chevrolet) is not running and is generating awful noises when I turn the ignition." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He said that he'd be certain to explain to people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
