Bad fuel in your Peugeot RCZ R? Diesel in a Petrol Peugeot?

ABOUT

Filling Diesel in a Petrol Peugeot is a regularly occurring problem. And its solution varies according to a few things. Assuming you would like to find out what it is best to do to fix it then continue reading.
Here are the most important variables to to consider whenever deciding on whether or not to get a fuel drain:

1. Exactly how much Diesel did you put into the Peugeot, considering that the fuel tank capacity of the Peugeot RCZ R is in most cases about 55 litres?
   1. A small quantity of Diesel, less than 2.75 litres of Diesel in a Petrol RCZ R will quite often not be a big problem. Experience has taught us that an amount less than 2.75 litres (approximately 5% of the total fuel tank volume) is often able to be sufficiently diluted simply by totally filling up the remainder of the tank with Petrol.
      It is rather unusual to encounter a vehicle suffering from issues because of less than 5% incorrect fuel contamination. Do not forget that it's infrequently found - not impossible to find. There are actually certain vehicles that won't endure any level of contamination in the slightest.
   2. Somewhere between 2.75 and 5.5 litres of Diesel in the Peugeot (from 5 to 10%) is really a 50/50 condition. Our working experience demonstrates that as many motorists get away with this as all those who don't. Any time you are figuring out whether or not to chance it and basically fill it up recognise that it is just like gambling your car on black - you've got a 50/50 possibility of it working.
   3. Anything over 5.5 litres of Diesel in your Petrol RCZ R ought to straightaway be removed because your probability of succeeding with that level of contamination is very likely below one in 50 - truly big odds.
2. Put some Diesel in a Petrol Peugeot and drove it: Have you observed any kind of performance troubles ever since putting the bad fuel in your RCZ R? If you have, get it drained irrespective of the amount of Diesel or the contamination percentage. Still running an automobile that is currently starting to suffer from the effects of fuel contamination will probably likely bring about even more damage affecting your fuel system parts.
3. Are you interested in security?
   You should get it removed. No matter the contamination ratio, there is invariably some amount of danger connected with operating a Petrol engine on fuel contaminated with the incorrect fuel. Possible final outcomes of driving a vehicle on the incorrect fuel include the engine refusing to start, running lumpy, reduced power, degradation of the high-pressure pump, worn out or blocked injectors, and so forth. These are some of the most typical Diesel in Petrol symptoms, and should you detect any of them stop and get it drained as soon as possible.
