It was after seven pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain!

The poor thing was somewhat affected apparently, stating "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car!

There is a possibility that these cans still have water in it and were included in refilling your car?s tank.
Fuel Tank with AdBlue - This contaminant can be added by mistake or intentionally. This usually comes about because vehicle owners lack understanding about AdBlue. Unlike what many have said that it is an additive, the reality is AdBlue is a liquid that helps minimizethe emission of harmful smoke in your exhaust and this must have a separate tank. Lots of people have been victims of this false belief and we have fixed them quickly.
Red diesel added to your tank - Per AA, there are about 1500 garages that sell red diesel. Although there are not too many outlets of this red diesel, still, accident occurs. Red diesel may come into your tank suddenly. You may not notice that you've got your tank filled with red diesel because you don?t have the full attention to what you're filling.
