It was just after 5 pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated there talking about the recent football rankings, waiting around for the next call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Shorne and put the wrong fuel in her diesel partner's Ford Fiesta hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected position and, as it was no more than a few miles from us, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and less apprehensive. Yet another job in Tower Hamlets well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances pretty simply.
Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
