Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations very swiftly.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged 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

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.
