In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Heathlands and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel mint green Mercedes-Benz Sprinter rental in error. The poor lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!"

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant situation to deal with in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
