Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant situation to handle in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations very swiftly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

I arrived at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the gal chastising her partner for actually being so daft.

Unlucky lad. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
