AdBlue Contamination
In County Durham we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the automobile.
Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most definitely don't turn over the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations fairly swiftly.
Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

I'm not very enthusiastic about carrying out work Sundays, and the other day was no different. I'd just come away from home filled with a tasty roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was on the way to sort out a man because he put the incorrect fuel in his Citroen. He was only in Wearhead therefore it wasn't long before I reached him. Just as I arrived right behind the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise God! I incredibly had my thoughts on other things and did not ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted any kind of problems as a result of starting it?" I revealed that generally there should not be problems and also I would personally drain the contaminated fuel quickly. Naturally I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and another pleased motorist was able to continue their journey without bother. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that can make operating on Sundays in County Durham just that small bit easier for me personally!
