ABOUT

Putting Diesel in a Petrol Skoda is a regular mistake to make. And its remedy depends on a variety of things. If you would like to know what you ought to do to sort it out then continue reading.
Listed here are the most important factors to consider when deciding on whether to get a fuel drain:

1. How much Diesel have you put in the Skoda, considering that the fuel tank capacity of your Skoda Yeti TSI is in most cases about 60 litres?
   1. A small quantity of Diesel, less than 3 litres of Diesel in a Petrol Yeti TSI will more often than not not necessarily be a major problem. Experience has shown us that an amount less than 3 litres (about 5% of the entire fuel tank capacity) is sometimes capable of being adequately diluted through completely filling the rest of the tank with the correct fuel.
      It's very rare to encounter a car suffering from issues with lower than 5% incorrect fuel contamination. Bear in mind that it's infrequently found - definitely not impossible to encounter. You can get some automobiles that don't stand any quantity of contamination in the slightest.
   2. Somewhere between 3 and 6 litres of Diesel in the Skoda (from 5 to 10%) is more of a 50/50 condition. Our expertise has demonstrated that as many people get away with it as those who don't. Any time you're deciding whether or not to chance it and basically top it up remember that it is just like betting all of it on black - you have a 50/50 chance of it being ok.
   3. Anything in excess of 6 litres of Diesel in a Petrol Yeti TSI should really straightaway be drained out because your likelihood of succeeding with this level of contamination is undoubtedly less than one in fifty - definitely long odds.
2. Put Diesel in a Petrol Skoda and drove it: Have you noticed any kind of performance issues ever since putting the wrong fuel in the Yeti TSI? If that's the case, have it emptied regardless of the quantity of Diesel or even the contamination percentage. Continually driving a vehicle that is currently starting to suffer the consequences of wrong fuel contamination will probably likely cause more damage being done to your fuel system parts.
3. Would you like peace of mind?
   Then simply just get it removed. Whatever the contamination percentage, there is invariably some amount of threat linked with operating a Petrol motor on fuel contaminated with Diesel. Probable consequences of driving on the incorrect fuel include the motor not starting, running unevenly, reduced power, degradation of the high-pressure pump, damaged or blocked injectors, and so on. These are several of the most typical Diesel in Petrol symptoms, and in the event that you detect any of them cease driving and have it drained as soon as possible.
