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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Redbridge we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not being totally sure how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And of course do not start the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will likely produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases quite quickly.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Redbridge to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Ilford (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Redbridge Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and fill up the car. They are also able to take care of any of the normal troubles that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Ilford - Ilford Wrong Fuel

A couple of days ago a man contacted us after his Audi stopped along a street in Ilford. He had unintentionally put unleaded in the diesel motor and got as far as the street before being forced to give up. It was early in the day and our engineer, who resides locally, arrived with him in about a quarter hour. We managed to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the vehicle.
