Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may well lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations pretty swiftly.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
