The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances quite swiftly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
