Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases quite simply.
