Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations very quickly.
Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

This really was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 3:30 in the morning and nobody was about. It had been pretty uneventful until now, and me and Mark were sitting about browsing a couple of old newspapers. That was an unusual calm time in Bedfordshire. It was in fact so relaxing that the moment the phone ultimately rang I leaped! The person told me: "I have completed my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in a diesel aunt's Audi Coupe GT". I told him to let us know exactly where he was and we hit the road, ending up in Pegsdon an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the vehicle.
