Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations pretty swiftly.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.
