It was before five pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and me were sitting discussing the sports, prepared for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Cardington and filled petrol in a diesel metallic green Volkswagen Touareg 2 rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was very affected it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that things like this do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. One more job in Shropshire done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite simply.
Take note that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.
