Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will often contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors.

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
