It was just before 5 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated talking about the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the next call to come in. Before long we received the call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Wickhams Cross and put petrol in her diesel burgundy red Cadillac Sixty Special lease car. She was very irritated apparently, crying "I can not believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe area and, because it was just a few minutes off from us, we could reach the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could get back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and less stressed.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel may well contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances very swiftly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded.

3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
