It was before eight pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were resting there commenting on the weekend's football rankings, prepared for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Dinnington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel mom's Audi Allroad lease car by mistake. The poor lady was quite troubled it seemed, stating "I still can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a secure space and, seeing that it was just a few miles from our van, we could find her right away. The bad fuel was drained and she could return to the hotel she was living at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off calm and less concerned. Another job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can certainly trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases quite expediently.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Dinnington - Wrong Fuel in Car Dinnington

I had a wonderful evening cycling during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next working day as I was on the way to help a young family on vacation in Dinnington. They had conked out after adding the wrong fuel in their wife's Saab, and were about an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and smiled while I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for turning out to be so confused. "How could you even be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing goes on continuously in Somerset and that it's actually nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he all the same had an ear bashing. Poor guy. At any rate, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel.

• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• 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.
