The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations pretty easily.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.
