Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol may well result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations rather swiftly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.
