Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases quite simply.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

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.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. 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.
