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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Redbridge we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the way to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases very quickly.

Remember though that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking spot we are able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Redbridge to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Wanstead (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Redbridge Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They will deal with the normal issues which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
