It was about five pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were resting discussing the tennis results, prepared for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Carleton Rode and put the wrong fuel in a diesel compact Renault Kangoo lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated apparently, crying "I can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, also that these things regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to reach her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away calm and a lot less anxious. Yet another job in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your fuel will cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases fairly simply.
Remember that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

A somewhat concerned motorist phoned us from the Texaco petrol station at Norfolk to inform us that he put petrol in his diesel classic Toyota Land Cruiser; he wasn't really quite sure how he'd managed to do it.
