Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

I got the job completed and she offered me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Berkshire lady!
