Helping you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Redbridge we have encountered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously never start the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will often cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank placed in the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Redbridge 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. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Ilford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Redbridge Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill up your automobile. They are also able to handle the common issues which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Ilford - Ilford Wrong Fuel

A guy had conked out just near a road in Ilford. His Lexus motor had stopped running and he had no clue what was awry right up until he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can't believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got virtually no rest the night before and that could have been the reason.
