Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel may produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases very expediently.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
