It was around 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting going over the recent rugby, prepared for the next job that day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Haynes and filled petrol in her diesel light blue BMW M5 rental car by mistake. She was pretty irritated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the car to a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we were able to arrive at her right away. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off contented and not so anxious. One more fuel drain in Bedfordshire well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will likely contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases pretty swiftly.
Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Now I'm not ever that keen on running weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd only just left the family following a magnificent lunch prepared for me by the wife, and I was on my way to help a fellow after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his compact Smart Forfour. He was situated in Haynes hence I was on scene before long. Just as I drove up behind the car and got out he told me "Thank God! I incredibly had my thoughts on other stuff and failed to grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought about some problems as a result of running it?" I explained truth be told there probably should not be any damage and that also I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained immediately for him. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and then one more pleased customer could carry on with his trip without any bother. The gentleman couldn't stop thanking me, and that is what can make carrying out work on weekends in Bedfordshire just that tiny bit less painful for me!

This was certainly what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly 2:30am and noone was about. It had become rather uneventful until now, and Ray and I were relaxing reading a few old magazines. It was an uncommon restful hour in Bedfordshire. It was indeed that peaceful that when the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The person on the phone stated: "I concluded my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the wife's Audi riolet". We asked him to let us know just where he was and we headed out, arriving in Haynes not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thanks a lot for getting there so promptly. While we were heading back to the depot we noticed two young ladies on the side of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. So we got out to change it, much to their delight.
