It was around 7 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and I were sitting talking over the recent sports rankings, ready for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Baker Street and put petrol in her diesel shiny Volvo XC60 rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe area and, as it was just a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could go home to the motel she was living at. Although we got really wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off calm and a lot less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Essex well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may well contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases rather easily.
Be aware that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.
