Petrol in your diesel car in Ollerton? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this time of need and get you moving again with our specialist wrong fuel removal assistance.

It was around 10 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing there discussing the recent tennis rankings, ready for the sixth job to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Ollerton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda hire car. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things sadly can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home calm and not so worried. A fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my books!

Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in case you?ve poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water.It is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, leading to serious and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly take care not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases quite quickly.

Take note that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank placed in the back of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Cheshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Ollerton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Cheshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your car. They will be able to handle any of the common problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
