The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to take care of in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol is likely to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations rather quickly.

Wrong Fuel in Car in GU34 Postcode - West Worldham Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Tuesday and I was en route to assist an old woman after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel green Audi S6 in West Worldham. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and stranded in a backwater lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I punched her location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only just bought it several days back because my other car, which I'd owned for over twenty years, eventually died". I got the drain done and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Hampshire woman!

I'd had a great afternoon hiking on my afternoon off and was feeling delighted with myself the following working day as I headed out to assist a new couple on holiday in West Worldham. They had broken down after adding petrol into their faithful Peugeot 3008, and they were around an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal berating her hubby for being so foolish. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass quite frequently in Hampshire and that it is nothing to stress about, nevertheless he yet still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the exact same error... I'd never hear the end of it!
