I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel since I had just got it several days ago when my old one, which I owned for in excess of thirty years, eventually broke down".

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel may well bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases pretty expediently.

You should know that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

This really was what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It had become rather uneventful up to now, and me and Paul were loafing looking at some old articles. It was an uncommon peaceful hour in Scottish Borders. Actually it was that calm that when the phone rang it made me jump! The motorist said: "I completed my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in a diesel Audi". I instructed him to inform us where he was located and we headed out, arriving in Selkirk half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the engine. He thanked us for coming out so quickly. As we were heading back home we found two young women on the side of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. Obviously we got out to change it, much to their elation.
