It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's footy rankings, waiting for the seventh job for the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in West Liss and put the wrong fuel in a diesel super VW Tiguan hire car by mistake. She was fairly troubled it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could find the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could get back to the hotel she was staying in.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases very swiftly.
