Water and fuel dont mix that well.Water is heavier than petrol but is still drawn into the carbarettor.Here it will sit in the fuel bowl and severely interrupt fuel supply,resulting in engine missing and stalling.Result same for injected petrol system.With diesel(derv,heavy fuel)the engine will probably still run "ok" but not recommended.

The water will settle to the bottom of the tank. The fuel pump is located on the bottom of the tank which means it will be picked up first and sent to the injectors.
