It was close to seven pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were resting talking over the weekend's footy rankings, waiting for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we got the call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Moorside and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly affected apparently, saying "I just can't believe I have messed up the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things regrettably do happen. She managed to move the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance from where we were, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away satisfied and not so apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Cheshire done well in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Cheshire we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from people being unsure of the way to use it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And absolutely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations very easily.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Cheshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Moorside (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill your vehicle. They can also deal with any of the typical problems that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Moorside - Moorside Vehicle Misfuel

Last friday a young man telephoned us just after his Volkswagen stopped working in the middle of a street in Moorside. He had unintentionally put petrol in his diesel car and got to the road before being forced to stop. It was still in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who stays locally, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again in the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your fast response, particularly at 2 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
