It was before seven pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were resting there discussing the footy rankings, prepared for the next call for the day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Highwood and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Ferarri red Mercedes C-Class rental car by mistake. She was very irritated apparently, crying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things often happen. She managed to get the car to a protected spot and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from us, we could get to her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got very wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home contented and not so worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Hampshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your fuel can certainly produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances quite expediently.
Take note that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Highwood
Now I am certainly not so inclined to working on weekends, and the other day was no different. I'd just come away from the wife and kids after having a superb dinner made by the wife, and I was on my way to sort out a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his pristine Porsche Boxster. He was situated in Highwood therefore it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I drove up behind the vehicle and started work he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my mind on stuff and did not realise I have put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought about some problems by simply starting it?" I determined generally there shouldn't be any kind of harm and that also I'd get the wrong fuel drained quickly. Obviously I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and then yet another content customer could continue their trip without any hassle. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Hampshire that little less painful to me!

We assured her that the car should be alright and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the children in the back."
