Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important condition to handle in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is going to produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations pretty quickly.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
