Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Redbridge we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers not being totally sure how to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And obviously never start the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances rather easily.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container sitting at the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Redbridge to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Ilford (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Redbridge Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and refill your automobile. They will be able to take care of the most common problems that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
