The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.
