It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing going over the recent rugby, ready for the sixth call of the day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Middle Wallop and filled petrol in a diesel cream Cadillac CTS-V rental. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably often happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may well lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances quite simply.

You should know however that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.
