it goes bo bo ba booom
The main thing that happens when there is water in diesel fuel is that it will burn poorly or maybe not even at all. It will also sink to the bottom of the fuel tank.
The water sinks and pools at the bottom of the tank
The engine may not start and/or have poor performance. Drain gas tank and fill with proper fuel.
What happens when chicken bone gets stuck in gas tank
If you are talking about a diesel tank on a vehicle, you can buy an additive that will mix with the water and let it burn ff. to remove water from a diesel tank, you can buy an alcohol fuel additive that will dissipate the water other remedy is to dump all fuel and water from the tank if the tank has a drain plug,or syphon all out till tank is empty bear in mind tho, that all diesel has water, and usually the water will go to water trap at fuel filter in normal running of the engine,and there should be a valve on this trap to dump the water, usually this has to be done manually
Fuel filter will plug up.

What will happen if water gets inside gas tank
The most effective way is to drain the fuel tank completely and then refill it with diesel fuel, add a bottle of methelated spirits to the fuel tank to ensure the water is no longer there, the metho breaks down the water particles and allows them to be burnt with the diesel, also change your fuel filter, as it can hold water, also the tank can become rusted /corroded due to the water being inside,
I believe the water causes condensation in the gas,and could cause a problem with stalling. Provided it is an older model car.
Sugar water and diesel that is put in a fuel tank will ruin a cars engine. The sugar will sit for a few days before recognition, and the diesel could potentially be caught in the fuel filter.
remove the fuel tank and drain the water
