It was around 8 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were sitting there talking about the recent football, waiting for the seventh job to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Thorpe Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel daughter's Jaguar XF rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather troubled it seemed, stating "I can't believe I have ruined the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, because it was only a short distance off from our van, we could reach the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could return to the hotel she was lodging at. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and not so worried. Another misfuel correction in Lancashire well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the fuel can easily cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations fairly simply.
Take note however that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.
