Bad fuel in your Dacia Sandero? Diesel in a Petrol Dacia?

ABOUT

Putting Diesel in a Petrol Dacia is a fairly typical mistake to make. And what you should do about it is dependent upon several factors. In the event that you want to find out what you have to do to sort it out then please read on.
Here are the most important factors to take into consideration whenever choosing whether or not to have a fuel drain:

1. How much Diesel did you put into the Dacia, keeping in mind that the fuel capacity of your Dacia Sandero is in most cases about 50 litres?
   1. A tiny quantity of Diesel, something like 2.5 litres of Diesel in a Petrol Sandero will quite often not necessarily be a massive problem. Experience has shown us that quantities under 2.5 litres (which is close to 5% of the entire fuel tank volume) is very often able to be adequately diluted through totally filling the remainder of the tank with the right fuel.
      It is very rare to come across a vehicle going through difficulties because of under 5% incorrect fuel contamination. Remember that it is very uncommon - not impossible to encounter. There are some vehicles that don't stand any level of contamination in the slightest.
   2. Somewhere between 2.5 and 5 litres of Diesel in the Dacia (5 to 10%) is more of a 50/50 situation. Our expertise has shown us that as many people get away with it as those people who break down. Any time you're deciding whether or not to chance it and basically fill it up remember that it is much like wagering everything on black - you've got a 50/50 chance of it working.
   3. Anything over 5 litres of Diesel in your Petrol Sandero ought to straightaway be drained because your likelihood of driving with this amount of contamination is very likely lower than one in fifty - extremely huge odds.
2. Put Diesel in a Petrol Dacia and drove it: Have you noted any kind of performance concerns since putting the incorrect fuel in your Sandero? In that case, have it removed no matter the volume of Diesel or even the contamination percentage. Continuing to run running a vehicle that is beginning to suffer the effect of wrong fuel contamination will likely lead to more and more damage being caused to the fuel system.
3. Do you need security?
   Then get it removed. Regardless of the contamination percentage, there is invariably some degree of risk connected with operating a Petrol vehicle on fuel contaminated with Diesel. Likely consequences of driving on the incorrect fuel include things like the engine not starting, running unevenly, loss of power, wearing of the high-pressure pump, worn or bunged injectors, and so on. These are several of the most common Diesel in Petrol signs and symptoms, and if you detect any of them stop and get it drained as soon as possible.
