It was about eight pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were relaxing there going over the golf results, at the ready for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we got a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Little Heath and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Toyota rental car. She was very agitated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing as it was just a few minutes away from us, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Redbridge well done in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Provide:

Below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Redbridge we have found progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people being unsure of the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And most definitely don't turn over the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases very expediently.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Redbridge to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Little Heath (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Redbridge Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your car. They can also take care of the standard problems which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

A couple weeks ago a youngster called us soon after his Fiat stopped working on a street in Little Heath.

We managed to take out the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Thank you for your fast response, especially at 2 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
