Car Care in Rainy Season: If water enters your car's fuel tank during rain, it can become a serious problem for the engine. The mixture of water and fuel can harm the engine's performance and the car will not start or may stop in the middle of the road. Here's what to do:
1. Turn off the car immediately
If you suspect water has entered the fuel tank, turn off the car immediately. Running the engine for too long can increase the damage.
2. Get the car towed
Take the car to a nearby service center or mechanic. If you try to drive the car, the risk of water entering the engine may increase.
3. Get the fuel tank checked and cleaned
Have a mechanic thoroughly check and clean the fuel tank. This includes emptying the fuel tank and completely removing any water accumulated inside.
Fuel Filter: Also check the fuel filter and replace it if necessary, as it may contain water.
4. Cleaning the fuel line
Water may also enter the fuel line, so get it cleaned by a mechanic.
5. Checking the engine and other systems
The fuel injection system, injectors and other critical parts of the engine should also be checked for any possible damage caused by water.
It is important to ensure that there is no damage or corrosion in the fuel system.
