It was close to six pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a rainless day, it had not ceased raining! Ryan and me were relaxing talking over the tennis results, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we received the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Boarstall and put petrol in a diesel creamy white Kia Sedona hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled apparently, saying "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected space and, because it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could get to her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and not so concerned. One more job in Buckinghamshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can certainly contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances very simply.
Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about sunrise and noone was stirring. It had become quite uneventful thus far, and Ryan and I were relaxing perusing a number of old newspapers. This was an unusual restful moment in Buckinghamshire. Actually it was in fact that calm that the moment the phone inevitably rang I jumped! The motorist explained: "I've only just concluded my evening shift and foolishly filled petrol in the diesel rust red Mitsubishi 3000GT in error". I told him to inform us where exactly the car was located and we hit the road, ending up in Boarstall only half an hour later.
