It was before 5 pm on a Friday and while we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were resting there talking over the golf results, waiting for the 6th job for the day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Silverstone and filled petrol in a diesel blue Audi A4 rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was very distressed it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to worry, and that such things sadly can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from us, we could reach the woman right away.

Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive away satisfied and a lot less anxious. One more job in Northamptonshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will often contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances pretty swiftly.
Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had been fairly dead up to now, and me and Paul were loafing browsing a couple of old magazines. This was a rare peaceful moment in Northamptonshire. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that when the phone finally rang it made me jump! The person on the other end said: "I've only just ended my evening shift and incredibly poured petrol in my khaki green Toyota Highlander Hybrid in error". I instructed him to inform us where the car was and we hit the road, ending up in Silverstone only half an hour later. The fuel was extracted from the engine. He said thanks a lot for arriving so promptly. While we were coming back to the depot we noticed two ladies at the side of the road who appeared to have a puncture.
