The most significant difference between servicing petrol and diesel-powered vehicles is the fuel delivery system. In a petrol engine, spark plugs ignite the fuel mixture, whereas in a diesel engine, compression of the air/fuel mixture causes it to ignite. This means that servicing a diesel engine requires more frequent checks and replacements of the fuel injectors than a petrol engine.
Diesel fuel systems are also susceptible to dirt and water contaminations. This can cause the fuel to gel and clog the injectors, resulting in poor engine performance or even engine failure. We can help you avoid this by changing your fuel filters and servicing your injectors regularly. Contact our friendly team today to learn more.
