Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in fuel will lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations very expediently.
Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NR25 Postcode - Salthouse Misfueling
Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Saturday and we were off to help an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel super Volvo XC90 in Salthouse. I'd been informed she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up in a country road en route to see her family. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I reached the location and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she said, "I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I'd only bought it a few days back right after my other one, which I had used for in excess of 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Norfolk woman!
Thus, if you've filled your petrol automobile with the wrong fuel, or the wrong fuel in your diesel vehicle wherever in Norfolk, contact us right away. Our experienced mechanics are completely ready and waiting for your call.
Wrong Fuel Assist Salthouse - Wrong Fuel in Car Salthouse
I had appreciated a fantastic evening fishing during my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the following morning as I set off to assist a young family who were vacationing in Salthouse. They had stopped after inserting petrol in their mint green Renault Kangoo, and they were around half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal berating her husband for actually being so silly. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this happens continuously in Norfolk and that it's nothing to worry about, but he all the same had his ear bent. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would do to me if I did the very same thing... I'd never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Salthouse
Now I am not too interested in doing work Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had just departed the wife and kids filled with a lovely dinner made by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a gentleman because he filled the wrong petrol in his beautiful Saab. He was only in Salthouse thus I was there almost immediately. As I drove up right behind the car and got out he explained to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my thoughts on something else and failed to ascertain I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought on some problems because of driving it?" I said generally there shouldn't be problems and also I would get the wrong fuel drained at once for him. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the correct fuel, and so yet another contented motorist could continue on their ride without the hassle. The guy did not stop saying thanks to me, and that helps make operating on Sundays in Norfolk just that little bit less painful in my opinion!
