Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Redbridge we have noticed an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course do not crank the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations fairly swiftly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir at the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Redbridge for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Snaresbrook (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Redbridge Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your car. They are also able to deal with the standard issues which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car Snaresbrook - Snaresbrook Fuel Rescue

I'd had a wonderful day cycling during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the following working day as I headed out to assist a young family vacationing in Snaresbrook. They had pulled over after adding petrol in their Nissan, and were approximately an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked while I heard to the wife telling off her partner for being so confused. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing goes on all the time in Redbridge and that it's nothing to be anxious about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his better half. Poor chap. Anyways, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I waved bon voyage and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

We participate in well over 4 thousand fuel drains on an annual basis in the UK (absolutely yes, there are that many individuals who make the mistake - you are not on your own).

We carried out a wrong fuel removal job outside a lovely residential home in Snaresbrook not so long ago. "I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to almost arrive at home when my car quit." Our specialist went out, despite the fact that it was pretty late at night, and performed a standard fuel drain and cleanse on the Jaguar to everyone's satisfaction.

Fuel Drain Snaresbrook - Snaresbrook Petrol in Diesel

This was the night shift. It was close to dawn and nobody was about. It was rather uneventful thus far, and John and I were loafing about looking through a couple of old articles. That was a rare peaceful time in Redbridge. Actually it was indeed that quiet that when the telephone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the phone stated: "I have concluded my overnight shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the Mercedes by mistake". We got him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was and we hit the road, arriving in Snaresbrook under an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he thanked us for getting there so promptly. As we were heading back to the depot we saw two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we got out to help them change it, to their delight.

Fuel Rescue Snaresbrook - Snaresbrook Vehicle Misfuel

A man called us from Snaresbrook saying he had mistakenly pumped unleaded in his diesel Renault. "What a pain! How could I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car!" It only took the specialist around 50 minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He carefully flushed the fuel system and then put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was thrilled and it didn't cost him dealer prices to get the task properly completed.
