Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations rather quickly.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
