Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is going to result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances very simply.
You should know however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
