Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to handle in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations rather simply.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.
