It was about 6 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were relaxing commenting on the recent football, at the ready for the seventh telephone call to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Sockburn and put the wrong fuel in a diesel new-shape Dodge Avenger rental. The unfortunate lady was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, also that such things happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was just a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could return to the hotel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away calm and not so concerned.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can potentially produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases rather swiftly.
Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.
