Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.
Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in GL12 Postcode - Lower Kilcott Misfueling
Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an elder sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel mom's Peugeot 2008 in Lower Kilcott. I had been advised she had driven away from the filling station and was stranded on a backwater lane on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she said, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I'd just purchased it a few days ago right after my other car, which I'd used for about 30 years, eventually died". I completed the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Gloucestershire woman!
