The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases rather quickly.
