Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can certainly contribute to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases rather swiftly.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.
