If you've put the wrong fuel in your car in Peppers Green (wrong fuel Peppers Green) we are the people you need to speak to. We serve the whole of the Peppers Green area and all nearby areas.

It was around five pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent football rankings, at the ready for the seventh call that day to arrive. In due time we had a call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Peppers Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus hire car. She was rather irritated it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things do happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a secure area and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we could get to the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and a lot less apprehensive. One more job in Essex well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competence :

Listed below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Essex we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not being totally sure how to use it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely never crank the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances rather simply.

Remember that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your premises full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Essex to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Peppers Green (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Essex Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and fill up the car. They can also deal with the usual troubles which can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
