Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will likely produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances rather expediently.
Remember however that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.
