Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can certainly contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases pretty expediently.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.
