The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances very easily.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.
