they run around 26000 psi fuel pressure in rail and when u get tiny water particles in the fuel and then in the rail the hi pressure pushes the water into the porous metal tube inside the rail

i wonder if this issue will be similar with the direct petrol injection too

Another reason why I don't like direct injection.

I'll go out on a limb here and say I reckon you want to start to get used to it!
