It was before 10 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were seated there discussing the recent football results, waiting for the sixth job that day to arrive. In due time we had a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Woodford Green and filled petrol in a diesel Kia rental car. The poor lady was very troubled it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, as it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could reach the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and much less apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Redbridge well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Redbridge we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of people not being aware of how to work with it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Phone us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances very quickly.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Redbridge to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, providing we can access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Woodford Green (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Redbridge Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your vehicle. They will be able to fix any of the standard problems that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Woodford Green - Woodford Green Wrong Fuel Assist

A couple of days ago a man phoned us right after his Suzuki stopped working along a road in Woodford Green. He had by mistake put petrol in his diesel motor and drove as far as the road before being forced to stop. It was really early in the morning and our fuel drainer, who lives close by, arrived with him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your fast response, especially at 2 a.m., I am grateful for it."
