It was close to 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated there discussing the recent golf, ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Orcop and put petrol in her diesel modified Kia Rio rental in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat distressed it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly often happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was just a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away satisfied and less worried. Yet another job in Herefordshire done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can certainly result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances fairly expediently.
Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.
