It was just after 7 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated commenting on the weekend's sports results, at the ready for the seventh job to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Guide and put the wrong fuel in a diesel mate's Kia Carens lease car. She was rather distressed it seemed, saying "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to move the car to a protected area and, because it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we could reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Lancashire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to deal with in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases fairly swiftly.
Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Guide
A teen who had just passed his driving test had wrong fueled his precious Kia Sportage by putting unleaded in the diesel at the petrol station near Guide.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Guide - Fuel Rescue Guide
This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and hardly anyone was about. It had been pretty uneventful thus far, and John and I were sitting perusing a couple of old papers. This was an uncommon quiet time in Lancashire. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that when my mobile inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The customer stated: "I have finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a customised Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500". I told him to let us know exactly where he was and we hit the road, getting to him in Guide under half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He said thanks a lot for coming so promptly. As we were heading back home we saw two young women at the side of the road who appeared to have a puncture. So we stopped to help them change it, much to their elation.
