Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can certainly bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances rather easily.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel.
