Is It Serious If a Small Amount of Rainwater Gets into the Fuel Tank?

[DiLawson]

If only a very small amount of rainwater enters the fuel tank, it will not cause serious consequences. However, if a large amount of rainwater enters, the engine may experience issues such as shaking, poor acceleration, knocking, cylinder knocking, and fuel line blockage. In such cases, the following methods can be considered for handling: 1. No obvious symptoms: If there are no obvious symptoms after rainwater enters the fuel tank, a fuel tank water remover can be considered. A qualified fuel tank water remover can indeed mix oil and water to remove accumulated water in the fuel tank, but care should be taken to choose the right product. 2. Obvious symptoms: If the impact on the engine is severe after water ingress, it is necessary to dismantle the fuel tank for cleaning and inspect the fuel lines, filters, fuel injectors, etc.
