Fuel Rescue Ilford - Ilford Fuel Drain

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a sunny Monday and I was on the way to assist an older woman after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia in Ilford. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and stranded on a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched her location into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I am getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I'd only just purchased it a couple of days ago when my old one, which I'd owned for in excess of 25 years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. What a pleasant Greenwich woman!

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Greenwich we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most certainly do not crank the car - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will likely lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances very expediently.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container in the back of the garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Greenwich to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Ilford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive Greenwich Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They can also take care of the standard issues which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

This was the graveyard shift. It was about sunrise and noone was stirring. It was rather uneventful up to now, and me and Paul were relaxing reading through a couple of old articles. This was an unusual quiet moment in Greenwich. It was in fact that tranquil that when the telephone inevitably rang I leaped! The person on the other end explained: "I've only just completed my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a Chevrolet by mistake". I got him to inform us where exactly he was and we hit the road, ending up in Ilford no more than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor. He said thanks for showing up so promptly. While we were heading back home we found two women on the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, to their delight.

Last monday a man called us soon after his Dacia cut out along a street in Ilford. He had inadvertently put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and was only able to get so far as the road before having to stop. It was yet early in the morning and our engineer, who lives locally, was with him in about 15 minutes. We managed to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your immediate response, particularly at 3 a.m., I really appreciate it."
