The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations pretty simply.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.
