Bad fuel in your Skoda Superb TDI-PD? Petrol in your Diesel Skoda?

ABOUT

Filling Petrol in a Diesel Skoda is a regularly occurring mistake to make. And what you have to do about it is dependent upon a variety of things. In case you would like to know what to do to fix it then read on.
Listed below are the key variables to take into consideration when choosing whether to get a fuel drain:

1. What level of Petrol did you put into the Skoda, taking into consideration that the fuel tank capacity of the Skoda Superb TDI-PD is usually around 62 litres?
   1. Hardly any Petrol, less than 3.1 litres of Petrol in a Diesel Superb TDI-PD will quite often not necessarily be a huge problem. Experience has taught us that anything under 3.1 litres (which is 5% of the whole fuel tank capacity) is in many instances capable of being sufficiently diluted through thoroughly filling up the remainder of the tank with the right fuel.
      It is rather uncommon to encounter a car or truck going through problems because of below 5% wrong fuel contamination. Remember that it is very rare - certainly not impossible to find. There are certain motor vehicles that won't endure any amount of contamination whatsoever.
   2. Somewhere between 3.1 and 6.2 litres of Petrol in the Skoda (from 5 to 10%) is a 50/50 condition. Our expertise has proven that as many people get away with this as those people who don't. Whenever deciding on whether to chance it and just top it up bear in mind that it is just like wagering it all on black - you have got a 50/50 possibility of it working.
   3. Anything more than 6.2 litres of Petrol in your Diesel Superb TDI-PD really should promptly be drained out seeing that your probability of getting away with that level of contamination is in all likelihood lower than one in fifty - seriously huge odds.
2. Put Petrol in a Diesel Skoda and drove it: Have you observed any performance issues as a result of putting the wrong fuel in the Superb TDI-PD? If that's the case, have it removed regardless of the quantity of Petrol or even the contamination ratio. Still driving an automobile that is already starting to suffer the consequences of wrong fuel contamination will typically result in increasing amounts of damage affecting your fuel system parts.
3. Are you interested in peace of mind?
   Then simply just get it drained. No matter the contamination ratio, there is always some amount of threat affiliated with driving a Diesel engine on fuel contaminated with Petrol. Probable consequences of driving a vehicle on the wrong fuel include things like the engine refusing to start, running lumpy, reduced power, wearing of the high-pressure pump, worn out or clogged injectors, and so on. These are some of the commonest Petrol in Diesel symptoms, and should you notice any of them then cease driving and get it removed right away.
