Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will likely bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances very simply.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.
