Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to deal with in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will often result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances quite expediently.
Remember that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Kingsfield - Fuel Rescue Kingsfield
This really was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly 2 in the morning and nobody was around. It had been rather dead so far, and me and Ray were loafing about browsing some old papers. This was an unusual peaceful time in Herefordshire. It was indeed that calm that the moment the telephone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist explained: "I just ended my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel husband's Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class in error". We instructed him to inform us where the car was situated and we set off, getting to him in Kingsfield no more than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car and he thanked us profusely for getting there so quickly. While we were heading back home we saw two young ladies on the side of the highway who seemed like they had a flat tyre. So we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.
