Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations very expediently.
You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

This was certainly what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and nobody was around. It had been rather uneventful until now, and Ray and I were loafing looking through several old articles. This was an uncommon quiet moment in Hertfordshire. Actually it was so tranquil that the moment my mobile inevitably rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I only just finished my night shift and incredibly put petrol in the white Mazda B-Series by mistake". I got him to inform us just where the car was and we set off, getting to him in Hogpits Bottom less than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the car and he said many thanks for getting there so rapidly. While we were heading back home we spotted two girls at the side of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. Accordingly we stopped to change it, to their elation.
