The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will often lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases pretty simply.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.
