Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may well produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations pretty easily.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

They'd conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their silver BMW Z8, and they were roughly an hour away. I arrived at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the wife telling her hubby off for being so daft.

I tried to tell her that this goes on on a regular basis in West Sussex and that it's nothing to stress about, nonetheless he still had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap.

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• 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.
