Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases very quickly.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and unusable.
