Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can potentially trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases very simply.
Take note however that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

I'd been told she had left the petrol station and broken down on a backwater lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped her location straight into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I reached the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only just got it a short while ago when my old car, which I had owned for more than 30 years, eventually broke down". I finished the drain and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Dorset woman!
