It was close to 9 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and me were seated talking over the weekend's tennis results, ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Little Heath and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel MINI hire car in error. The poor thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to find her right away. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. Yet another job in Redbridge done well in my mind!

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Redbridge we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly stemming from drivers not knowing the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the practical competence and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances very simply.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Redbridge for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Little Heath (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Redbridge Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of any of the common problems which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Little Heath - Little Heath Fuel Removal

A customer rang us from his residence on a road in Little Heath. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a MINI) is not starting up and is creating very bad noises when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it drained promptly.
