The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases fairly easily.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
