Incorrect fuel in your car in Sutton Green? You've come to the right place. We are here to assist you in this hour of need and get you going once again with our professional fuel removal services.

It was just after 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and me were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we received the call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Sutton Green and put petrol in her diesel Smart lease car in error. The poor thing was rather agitated apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things sadly happen. She was able to get the car to a protected space and, as it was only a few miles off from our van, we were able to arrive at her quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could get back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less worried. Another job in Cheshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

In Cheshire we have noticed progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to drivers not understanding how to to make use of (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And certainly never crank the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank may well cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances rather quickly.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container at the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Cheshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Sutton Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of any of the typical troubles which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Sutton Green - Sutton Green Wrong Fuel Doctor

The other day a young man phoned us because his Suzuki cut out in the middle of a road in Sutton Green. He had by accident put the incorrect fuel in the diesel motor and drove to the road before having to stop. It was actually in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who lives close by, was with him in about a quarter hour. We were able to get rid of the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your timely response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I am grateful for it."
