It was about 9 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's golf results, prepared for the 8th call of the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Hearn and put petrol in a diesel metallic red BMW 600 rental car. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this sadly happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from our van, we were able to reach the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and a lot less anxious. One more job in Hampshire done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances quite swiftly.
Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Just had a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and we were en route to assist an elder sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark green Toyota Solara in Hearn. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and stranded in a country lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and was with her within an hour. I got to the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car.

I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a precious Hampshire lady!

A driver from Hearn with her youngsters in her diesel new-shape Mercedes-Benz E-Class had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Co Op filling station. She contacted us weeping and very worried as she had never wrong fueled and did not know what might happen to her car because of it. We assured her that the car should be okay and that she would be back up and running very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined.
