It was around 5 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and me were seated there discussing the recent golf rankings, ready for the 6th call that day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Little Neston and put petrol in her diesel Toyota rental car. She was very irritated apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the car to a protected space and, seeing that it was just a few miles from our van, we were able to reach the customer swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off satisfied and not so anxious. A job in Cheshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Cheshire we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In case you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially produce idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations very quickly.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Cheshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Little Neston (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the typical problems which can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
