It was before 9 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting there going over the recent golf rankings, at the ready for the next job that day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Wisbech St Mary and filled petrol in a diesel white Alfa Romeo164 hire car. She was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we could reach her swiftly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and much less apprehensive. A job in Cambridgeshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in fuel can certainly result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations very simply.
Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.
