Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can potentially trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances rather quickly.
Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.
