Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel may lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations fairly swiftly.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• 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.
