Before long we got the call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Whitehouse Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel cream Mitsubishi Expo hire car in error. She was pretty troubled apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!"

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases rather swiftly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
