Incorrect fuel in your Suzuki SJ Samurai? Diesel in your Petrol Suzuki?

ABOUT

Filling Diesel in a Petrol Suzuki is a very common problem. And what you want to do about it is dependent upon a few things. Assuming you want to know what you ought to do to fix it then read on.
Listed below are the most crucial factors to to consider when making a decision whether or not to have your car drained:

1. What amount of Diesel have you put in the Suzuki, taking into account that the fuel capacity of your Suzuki SJ Samurai is usually around 40 litres?
   1. A modest amount of Diesel, less than 2 litres of Diesel in a Petrol SJ Samurai will more often than not not necessarily be a significant problem. Experience has proven to us that quantities less than 2 litres (5% of the fuel tank capacity) is usually able to be adequately diluted by means of completely topping up the rest of the tank with the correct fuel.
      It is very uncommon to find a car experiencing problems because of less than 5% incorrect fuel contamination. Remember that it is infrequent - in no way impossible to encounter. There are some automobiles that won't endure any quantity of contamination whatsoever.
   2. In between 2 and 4 litres of Diesel in the Suzuki (from 5 to 10%) is more of a 50/50 scenario. Our working experience has shown that as many drivers get away with this as those who break down. Whenever deciding on whether or not to risk it and basically fill it up remember that it is the same thing as wagering it all on black - you've got a 50/50 possibility of it working.
   3. Anything in excess of 4 litres of Diesel in your Petrol SJ Samurai must immediately be removed because your probability of driving with that quantity of contamination is more than likely lower than one in 50 - definitely long odds.
2. Put some Diesel in a Petrol Suzuki and drove it: Have you detected any performance problems as a result of putting the bad fuel in the SJ Samurai? In that case, get it drained irrespective of the amount of Diesel or even the contamination percentage. Continually driving an automobile that is already starting to suffer the effects of wrong fuel contamination can only lead to more and more damage affecting your fuel system parts.
3. Are you interested in security?
   In that case get it removed. Regardless of contamination ratio, there is invariably a certain level of risk linked with operating a Petrol vehicle on fuel contaminated with Diesel. Possible implications of driving a car on the incorrect fuel include the engine refusing to start, running lumpy, decrease in power, wearing of the high-pressure pump, damaged or clogged injectors, and so on. These are some of the most common Diesel in Petrol signs or symptoms, and in the event that you detect any of them stop and have it removed asap.
