It was just after five pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were resting discussing the recent football rankings, ready for the sixth call to come in. Finally we got the call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Rushock and put the wrong fuel in her diesel boss' Audi A8 rental car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly can happen. She was able to move the car into a secure position and, since it was just a few miles from where we were, we could find the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and not so concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to handle in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases rather simply.
Remember that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DY10 Postcode - Rushock Misfueling

We explained to him it was no problem and soon enough had our man out to him to clean the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having purged the wrong fuel, he was almost immediately back driving.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Rushock
Now I'm certainly not overly keen on doing the job on weekends, and the other day was the same. I had only just departed the wife and kids following a lovely Sunday roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was on the way to sort out a man because he put the wrong fuel in his bright red BMW X6 M. He was situated in Rushock and so I arrived on scene before long. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and stepped out he told me "Thank the Lord! I had my thoughts on stuff and did not realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted any harm by simply running it?" I revealed that generally there shouldn't be any kind of harm and that also I'd drain the fuel at once. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and another satisfied motorist was able to carry on with their ride without any subsequent bother. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what makes working on Sundays in Worcestershire that little bit less painful in my opinion!

A customer working in Rushock phoned us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel boss' Audi A3 and, like countless before her, assumed that she could just fill up her car with diesel and it'd be fine. The vehicle was coughing and then it stopped when she arrived at the the front of her work. We soon went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved in an hour or so while she was in the office. She came outside when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm really glad you fixed my vehicle."
