It was just before 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were sitting talking about the rugby, prepared for the seventh job for the day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Rooks Bridge and put petrol in a diesel dark red Suzuki Samurai rental by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things often happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure space and, because it was just a few minutes away from the office, we were able to get to the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive away calm and less apprehensive. A job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances rather simply.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Monday and we were en route to help an old lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel blue Volkswagen GTI in Rooks Bridge.

Wrong Fuel Assist Rooks Bridge - Wrong Fuel in Car Rooks Bridge

I'd had a fantastic afternoon golfing on my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a young couple who were holidaying in Rooks Bridge. They pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel into their clean white Cadillac Seville, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smiled while I heard to the gal berating her hubby for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs on a regular basis in Somerset and that it's really nothing at all to stress about, however he still got an ear bashing by his better half. Unfortunate guy. At any rate, I drained out all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good-bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if I did the very same thing... I would never live it down!
