It was just before 6 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing talking over the rugby results, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Bootle and filled petrol in her diesel Smart rental by mistake. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from us, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could go home to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off satisfied and less stressed. A fuel drain in Merseyside well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Merseyside we have found an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to start the car - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the event that you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to address in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel will bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking bay we are able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Merseyside for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Bootle (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Merseyside Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and fill up the car. They can also take care of the usual troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bootle - Bootle Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer had stopped near a road in Bootle. His Renault motor had ceased running and he had no idea what was wrong till he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got very little rest the day before and that could have been the reason.
