It was about 7 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated talking about the recent sports results, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Hallow Heath and filled petrol in a diesel mustard yellow Ford Focus rental car. The unfortunate lady was quite troubled apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this sadly can happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from our van, we could reach the customer swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. Yet another fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your fuel will often lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances quite easily.
You should know that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.
