Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

• 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.
