Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank is going to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations very simply.

• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• 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.
