Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations very expediently.
Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.
