It was about 6 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were seated discussing the footy, waiting around for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Weedon Bec and put petrol in her diesel light green Jaguar XF rental car in error. The poor thing was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this do happen. She was able to move the car to a safe position and, because it was just a few miles away from us, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and less anxious. A job in Northamptonshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in your fuel will likely cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations very expediently.
You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

I'd had a fantastic afternoon hiking during the weekend and felt cheerful the following day as I headed out to aid a young couple on holiday in Weedon Bec. They'd broken down after putting the wrong fuel into their metallic blue VW Golf III, and were around an hour away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl chastising her man for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs on a regular basis in Northamptonshire and that it's nothing to be anxious about, however he all the same had an earful by his better half. Poor boy. At any rate, I drained out all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed goodbye and thought about what my missus would do to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Now I am not overly inclined to doing the job Sundays, and a while back was no different. I'd just left the wife and kids after a fantastic roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was off to sort out a gentleman who filled the wrong petrol in his faithful BMW. He was somewhere in Weedon Bec thus I was there quickly. As I arrived right behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Almighty!

This really was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to dawn and hardly anyone was stirring. It was quite dead so far, and Ryan and I were sitting reading through a number of old magazines. That was an unusual quiet moment in Northamptonshire. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that the instant the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The voice explained: "I concluded my overnight shift and incredibly put petrol in the apple green Audi RS 6 by mistake". We got him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we left, getting to him in Weedon Bec under an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the car and he said thanks a lot for arriving so fast.
