Incorrect fuel in a Fiat Ulysse TD S? Petrol in your Diesel Fiat?

ABOUT

Filling Petrol in a Diesel Fiat is a common mistake. And what you have to do about it is dependent upon a few things. If perhaps you would like to know what you have to do about it then stay with me.
These are the most crucial variables to to consider when deciding on whether to get the car drained:

1. Exactly how much Petrol have you put in the Fiat, taking into account that the fuel capacity of your Fiat Ulysse TD S is normally around 80 litres?
   1. A tiny quantity of Petrol, less than 4 litres of Petrol in a Diesel Ulysse TD S will more often than not not really be a massive problem. Experience has proven to us that an amount less than 4 litres (almost 5% of the fuel tank capacity) is sometimes capable of being sufficiently diluted through wholly filling up the remainder of the tank with Diesel.
      It is relatively unusual to find a car or truck going through difficulties because of below 5% incorrect fuel contamination. Be aware that it is infrequently found - not impossible to encounter. There are actually a number of cars that don't endure any quantity of fuel contamination at all.
   2. Between 4 and 8 litres of Petrol in the Fiat (5 to 10%) is a 50/50 situation. Our experience has demonstrated that as many people get away with it as those who break down. When you are figuring out whether to chance it and basically top it up recognise that it is just like betting your car on black - you've got a 50/50 possibility of it being ok.
   3. Anything in excess of 8 litres of Petrol in your Diesel Ulysse TD S should really straightaway be drained out because your probability of getting away with that quantity of contamination is undoubtedly less than one in 50 - really huge odds.
2. Put some Petrol in a Diesel Fiat and drove it: Have you noted any kind of performance difficulties ever since putting the bad fuel in the Ulysse TD S? If that's the case, get it drained no matter the amount of Petrol or even the contamination ratio. Proceeding to run running an automobile that is now starting to suffer the consequences of wrong fuel contamination will just be responsible for progressively more harm being caused to the fuel system.
3. Do you want security?
   You should get it drained. Whatever the contamination ratio, there is invariably a certain level of danger linked with operating a Diesel engine on fuel contaminated with Petrol. Possible consequences of driving a car on the wrong fuel include things like the motor not starting, running lumpy, reduced power, wearing of the high-pressure pump, worn out or bunged injectors, and so on. These are a few of the most typical Petrol in Diesel signs or symptoms, and should you recognise any of them then stop and get it drained right now.
