Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel can certainly lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations quite simply.
Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.
