It was about 9 pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were seated there commenting on the tennis results, ready for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Oswestry and put the wrong fuel in her diesel green Seat Toledo lease car in error. She was quite distressed apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things sadly happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will often bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations rather easily.
Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Oswestry - Wrong Fuel in Car Oswestry
I had a fantastic afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the following day as I set off to help a young couple who were away in Oswestry. They'd conked out after inserting petrol in their blue Audi RS 6, and were around an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smiled while I listened to the lady telling off her hubby for turning out to be so daft. "How could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this situation takes place quite frequently in Shropshire and that it's actually nothing at all to fret about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I drained out all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive off I waved good bye and pondered on what my wife would do to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
