It was just after 5 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were seated there going over the football, waiting around for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Horncastle and put petrol in a diesel rust red Seat Ibiza hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was quite affected it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we could arrive at the lady rather quickly.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your fuel is going to cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations pretty simply.
You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Horncastle
Now I'm certainly not that enthusiastic about doing the job Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just departed home after eating a superb roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was on my way to sort out a man who had filled the wrong fuel in his grey Austin Mini. He was situated in Horncastle so I arrived there soon. Just as I pulled up behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my attention on something else and didn't ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought about some problems by simply running it?" I revealed there probably should not be damage and also I would personally get the fuel drained as soon as possible. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and then one more happy motorist was able to carry on with their journey without any subsequent fuss. The guy could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what helps make working on Sundays in Berkshire just a little bit easier for me personally!

A woman employed in Horncastle phoned us after she had tried to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel green Volkswagen Golf and, like many before her, assumed that she could just fill the tank with diesel and it would be okay. The vehicle was chugging and then it cut out when she arrived at the the front of her office. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and got it resolved inside an hour or so while she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm very happy you sorted my car."
