It was before six pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! James and me were seated there talking over the rugby results, at the ready for the sixth job to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Stogursey and filled petrol in a diesel mom's Ford Aspire hire car by mistake. She was somewhat troubled apparently, saying "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from us, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will likely result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.
