A gentleman conked out on a road in Stoke-upon-Trent had to have a fuel drain around a few weeks back. His faithful Saab 9-5 was broken down roadside after he had filled up with the wrong fuel.

We arrived in a quarter-hour as our drainer was in neighbouring Stoke-upon-Trent and had finished his previous job. He said, "I don't believe I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and got stuck here!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases very simply.
Remember that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in ST4 Postcode - Stoke-upon-Trent Misfueling
What a great night's sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on the way to help an elder woman after she put petrol in her diesel teal Mercedes CL-Class in Stoke-upon-Trent. I'd been informed she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a backwater lane en route to see her grandchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the car. As I was working she said to me, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel because I'd only acquired it a few days ago after my former car, which I had owned for about 25 years, finally died on me". I got the drain completed and she offered me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Staffordshire lady!
