It was before 9 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing there going over the recent rugby results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to arrive. In due time we got the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Cliffe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel bright yellow Smart Car rental in error. The unfortunate thing was fairly troubled it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things sadly do happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations fairly swiftly.
Remember however that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be totally wet and useless.
