Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Redbridge we have discovered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously be careful not to start the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations quite swiftly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
