It was about 8 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were resting talking over the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the 8th job to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Holbury and put petrol in a diesel black Mercedes-Benz M-Class rental car by mistake. She was rather distressed it seemed, crying "I can not believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the motel she was living at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and much less concerned. Yet another job in Hampshire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel is likely to bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances very expediently.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Saturday and I was on the way to help an elder lady after she had put petrol in her diesel expensive Skoda Citigo in Holbury. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched straight into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she told me, "I am getting rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I'd only got it a few days back when my former car, which I'd used for in excess of 30 years, eventually broke down". I completed the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a precious Hampshire woman!

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
