It was after 9 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and me were resting talking over the golf results, waiting around for the next job to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Gatley and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche hire car in error. The poor thing was quite troubled apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably often happen. She was able to get the car into a secure area and, as it was only a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away relaxed and a lot less anxious. Another fuel drain in Greater Manchester done well in my mind!

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a gloomy Wednesday and I was en route to help an old sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel BMW in Gatley. I had been told she drove away from the filling station and was broken down on a backwater lane on the way to visit her family. I plugged her location in the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing it she explained, "I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd just acquired it a short while back after my old one, which I had had for in excess of thirty years, finally stopped working". I completed the drain and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Greater Manchester lady!

AdBlue In Diesel
In Greater Manchester we have discovered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the vehicle.
Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.
Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In case you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious situation to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel will likely result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases quite swiftly.
Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Gatley - Gatley Wrong Fuel Drain
It truly was the graveyard shift. It was around 2am and almost noone was about. It had been quite dead until now, and Ray and I were sitting perusing several old newspapers. This was a rare quiet time in Greater Manchester. It was indeed so calm that the moment my mobile finally rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist told me: "I've just completed my overnight shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel Mercedes by mistake". We asked him to tell us exactly where he was and we headed out, reaching him in Gatley not as much as 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the motor and he thanked us profusely for getting there so rapidly. While we were coming back to the depot we found two ladies at the edge of the road who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we got out and helped them change it, much to their delight.
