It was close to 8 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were sitting commenting on the weekend's rugby results, prepared for the sixth fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Woodford Green and filled petrol in a diesel Porsche rental car. The unfortunate lady was very irritated it seemed, stating "I still can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to move the car to a protected position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from us, we could find the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the hotel she was lodging at.

Our Areas of Competency :

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Redbridge we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases pretty easily.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Redbridge to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Woodford Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Redbridge Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They will handle any of the normal troubles which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
