Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will likely produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations very swiftly.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

• 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.
