Petrol in your diesel car in Glapthorn? Thanks for visiting Wrong Fuel SoS. Give us a call and enquire just how we can aid you to get you up and running once more.
It was around 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and me were sitting there commenting on the footy rankings, at the ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Glapthorn and put the wrong fuel in a diesel cobalt blue BMW M lease car in error. She was fairly troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was no more than a short distance from the office, we were able to find the woman quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away satisfied and less concerned. A job in Northamptonshire well done in my books!

They will be able to handle the usual problems that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances very simply.
Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
