Sentech Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 I made a BIG mistake some months ago. I inadvertently put 26 litres of lead free 95 octane petrol into my diesel 2.9 CRD ............... brain freeze and not paying attention. That said, I realized my mistake immediately, drove 1.5 miles to my house, removed and drained the entire tank, and fitted a new fuel filter. The car is still running fine BUT my average fuel consumption is a bit off. I'm getting about 12 ltr/ 100km (urban driving). I have a niggling suspicion the injectors are goosed.
