Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases very quickly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
