It was before 6 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped raining! James and me were resting going over the weekend's football, prepared for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Ollerton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel friend's Volvo XC90 rental in error. The poor lady was rather troubled it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was just a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at her without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important situation to take care of in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may well trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather swiftly.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Wednesday and I was on my way to help an elder woman after she put petrol in her diesel brand new Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class in Ollerton. I'd been told she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a country road en route to pay a visit to her family. I plugged the location in the TomTom and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I reached the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel as I had only just acquired it a few days ago because my previous car, which I owned for about 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gave me a toffee and said thank you. What a delightful Nottinghamshire woman!

• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
