We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Redbridge we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers being unsure of the way to use it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly don't crank the car - not even to move it off the pump. If you did start the car you would likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases rather quickly.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Redbridge for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages.

Recent Fuel Drains in Woodford Green

Just a few of the more typical stories we pick up from the technicians in Woodford Green:

Now I'm certainly not too inclined to working Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd just left the wife and kids after a tasty roast cooked by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a man after he filled the wrong petrol in his Porsche. He was stationed in Woodford Green hence it wouldn't be long before I arrived with him. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I had my thoughts on other things and didn't grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about some problems as a result of starting it?" I explained there should not be any problems and also that I'd get the fuel drained right away. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and then one more pleased client was able to carry on with his ride without hassle. The guy did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what can make carrying out work on Sundays in Redbridge a tiny bit easier for me!
