Measures after filling with the wrong fuel |
Caution Filling with the wrong fuel can lead to damage to the high pressure components and especially to the high pressure pump that cannot be repaired due to the missing lubrication of the diesel fuel. Damage due to seizure and metal particles can be expected. These metal particles will probably cause further damage to pressure regulating valves and injectors. |
