Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is likely to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations rather easily.
Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in CM2 Postcode - Chelmsford Misfueling
Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a rainy Sunday and we were on the way to assist an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel baby blue Subaru Outback in Chelmsford. I had been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down in a country road on route to visit her godchildren. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd just got it a few days back because my old car, which I owned for about 30 years, inevitably broke down". I completed the drain and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a precious Essex woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Chelmsford
I am not necessarily excessively interested in doing the job on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd just departed the family after a fantastic dinner made for me by the wife, and I was off to deal with a fellow who put the wrong fuel in his clean white Volkswagen Scirocco. He was only in Chelmsford so it wasn't long before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived right behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other stuff and didn't realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted some problems because of running it?" I determined that generally there probably should not be damage and also that I'd get the fuel drained as soon as possible. As expected I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and thus yet another pleased motorist was able to continue his traveling without any bother. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is what tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Essex that little bit better for me personally!

We told her that the car should be alright and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the children in the back."
