Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will often contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a bright Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an older lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel grey Peugeot 106 in Wheelton. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural road on the way to see her grandchildren. I popped her location into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I got to the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the work she said, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel since I had only got it several days back when my other car, which I had had for about twenty five years, finally stopped working". I got the drain done and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant Lancashire lady!

I'd had a wonderful evening cycling during the weekend and felt pleased the following working day as I was en route to aid a young couple who were on vacation in Wheelton. They pulled over after inserting petrol into their green Volkswagen Golf, and they were around an hour's drive away. I showed up at their location and laughed while I listened to the lady telling her husband off for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this problem comes to pass quite frequently in Lancashire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his better half. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyhow, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved goodbye and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
