Inevitably we got the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Southover and put petrol in her diesel bright white Lexus IS F rental. She was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably do happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to address in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will often cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases very expediently.
Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

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