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

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Enfield we have seen progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. If perhaps you did start the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel is going to cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases rather easily.

Take note that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank placed at the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in Enfield for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Brimsdown (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Enfield Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the typical issues that might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Brimsdown - Brimsdown Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer called us from his home on a close in Brimsdown. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Toyota) is not starting up and is generating very bad noises when I flip the key." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would fix the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, carried out the drain and filled him up again with untainted Diesel. He said he would be certain to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it drained immediately.
