It was before seven pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! James and me were relaxing there talking over the tennis rankings, ready for the 6th fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling station in Henley-in-Arden and put petrol in her diesel classic Land Rover Defender 90 rental in error. She was very troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from where we were, we were able to find the woman right away.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.
