The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will often bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances rather expediently.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be completely wet and unusable.
