It was before 7 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated there talking over the sports rankings, waiting for the 8th call to come in. Before long we got a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in New Brancepeth and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel company's Citron DS5 hire car in error. She was fairly troubled it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!"

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will likely lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations quite swiftly.
Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car County Durham - Petrol in Diesel Car New Brancepeth
I'm not actually overly hot for doing the job on weekends, and a while back was the same. I had only just departed home filled with a fantastic lunch cooked for me by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow who filled the incorrect fuel in his metallic yellow Mitsubishi Montero. He was situated in New Brancepeth therefore it wouldn't be long before I arrived with him. Just as I pulled up at the car and got out he said to me "Thank God! I had my attention on other stuff and did not ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted problems by simply running it?" I revealed that generally there should not be any problems and that also I would get the wrong fuel drained as soon as possible for him. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and then yet another content client could continue on their journey without the need for bother. The guy could hardly stop thanking me, and this makes working on Sundays in County Durham that tiny bit better in my opinion!

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
