It was just before five pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing talking over the tennis, waiting around for the 8th job that day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Pipehouse and filled petrol in a diesel metallic grey BMW 650 rental in error. The poor thing was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly often happen. She managed to move the car into a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from us, we could find her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was living in. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and less concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Somerset well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may well trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases fairly simply.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Pipehouse - Wrong Fuel in Car Pipehouse

I had a fantastic evening cycling on my day off and was feeling cheerful with myself the next working day as I headed out to aid a young family on holiday in Pipehouse. They'd broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their maroon Peugeot 307, and were roughly an hour away. I showed up at their car and smirked while I listened to the girl telling her spouse off for turning out to be so silly. "How could you actually be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this problem goes on on a regular basis in Somerset and that it is nothing to stress about, but he all the same had an ear bashing by his better half. I felt sorry for the guy. In any case, I extracted all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would tell me if I made the same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
