It was around 5 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were seated there discussing the weekend's sports rankings, ready for the sixth call to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Church Stretton and put petrol in her diesel burgundy red Smart Fortwo rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, and that these things do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was just a short distance off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away calm and much less apprehensive. One more job in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations very expediently.

Take note that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
