It was before 9 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and me were resting going over the golf results, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Radlith and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel sunflower yellow Fiat Multipla rental car. She was rather affected it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things sadly often happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank can certainly trigger idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Be aware that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
