It was just before 9 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and me were resting discussing the recent footy results, waiting around for the 6th telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Little Barrow and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Suzuki rental car. The poor lady was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was just a short distance from us, we could reach the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less concerned. One more fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Cheshire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Any time you discover youself to be in this situation don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians possess the practical expertise and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to take care of in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases fairly simply.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
