Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

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

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations pretty easily.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Kettlebrook - Wrong Fuel in Car Kettlebrook

I had a wonderful day golfing on my holiday and was feeling pleased the next morning as I set off to aid a young family who were on holiday in Kettlebrook. They'd pulled over after adding petrol in their bright red Volkswagen GTI, and they were around half an hour away. I showed up at their location and smirked while I heard to the lady telling her husband off for being so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this takes place frequently in Staffordshire and that it's truly nothing at all to stress about, and yet he still got an ear bashing by his better half. Poor lad. Anyway, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I mouthed goodbye and wondered what my missus would tell me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
