It was after five pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were sitting there commenting on the recent tennis results, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Pentre-cefn and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel light blue VW Golf rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was very distressed it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly can happen. She managed to get the car to a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from our van, we were able to get to the lady swiftly.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.
Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Pentre-cefn
I am not ever very excited about carrying out work on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids following a magnificent dinner cooked by the better half, and I was on my way to help a fellow who had filled the wrong fuel in his mustard yellow Chevrolet Caprice. He was located in Pentre-cefn hence it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. As I drove up at the car and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my attention on stuff and didn't ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted any kind of harm as a result of running it?" I explained there shouldn't be damage and that also I'd remove the fuel right away. Needless to say I removed the wrong fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another contented motorist had the ability to continue his trip with no difficulty. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what makes carrying out work on weekends in Shropshire just that small bit better in my opinion!
