Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances pretty simply.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
