Contaminated fuel in your Ferrari 360 Modena? Diesel in your Petrol Ferrari?

ABOUT

Putting Diesel in a Petrol Ferrari is a regularly occurring problem. And exactly what you need to do about it is dependent upon several different factors. Assuming you would like to know what you ought to do to fix it then continue reading.
Here are the most crucial variables to consider whenever deciding on whether or not to get a fuel drain:

1. What amount of Diesel did you put in to the Ferrari, keeping in mind that the fuel tank capacity of your Ferrari 360 Modena is probably around 95 litres?
   1. Hardly any Diesel, as little as 4.75 litres of Diesel in a Petrol 360 Modena will normally not necessarily be a big problem. Experience has taught us that anything less than 4.75 litres (which is almost 5% of the fuel tank) is frequently capable of being sufficiently diluted through thoroughly topping up the remainder of the tank with Petrol.
      It is highly rare to find a vehicle going through problems because of less than 5% incorrect fuel contamination. Remember that it's rare - not impossible to encounter. You will discover a number of vehicles that will not stand any level of fuel contamination at all.
   2. In between 4.75 and 9.5 litres of Diesel in the Ferrari (5 to 10%) is really a 50/50 condition. Our working experience demonstrates that as many motorists get away with it as those who don't. Whenever you are deciding whether or not to chance it and simply top it up remember that it is much like gambling it all on black - you have got a 50/50 possibility of it working.
   3. Anything in excess of 9.5 litres of Diesel in a Petrol 360 Modena ought to straightaway be drained out seeing as your probability of succeeding with this amount of contamination is undoubtedly less than one in 50 - really big odds.
2. Put Diesel in a Petrol Ferrari and drove it: Have you noticed any performance problems after putting the bad fuel in the 360 Modena? If you have, have it emptied no matter the volume of Diesel or the contamination ratio. Continually driving a vehicle that is now starting to suffer the effect of wrong fuel contamination will probably likely end up in even more damage being caused to your fuel system parts.
3. Do you want reassurance?
   Then get it drained. Regardless of contamination percentage, there is always some amount of risk linked with driving a Petrol engine on fuel contaminated with the incorrect fuel. Likely consequences of driving on the incorrect fuel include things like the engine not starting, running lumpy, lack of power, wearing of the high-pressure pump, damaged or bunged injectors, and the like. These are several of the commonest Diesel in Petrol signs or symptoms, and if you observe any of them stop and get it drained right away.
