It was before six pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ryan and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting around for the 8th job of the day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Kingsdon and filled petrol in her diesel teal BMW 745 hire car in error. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected position and, as it was just a few minutes off from the office, we were able to reach the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and less worried. A misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases fairly simply.
You should know however that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.
