Misfuelling Prevention with the FuelSure Device
Misfuelling a vehicle is a more common problem than one might consider. The statistics are staggering when it comes to police forces and regular people misfuelling their vehicles. About 1 in every 4 people will misfuel a diesel engine, which means about every 4 minutes a misfuelling occurs. Furthermore about 2 out of every 4 people know someone who has actually misfuelled their car. Each year about 150,000 people use the wrong fuel, which can cost each person about £150 to £7000 depending on the damage. If the vehicle is driven with the wrong fuel it costs more for the repairs.
With diesel engines when the wrong fuel is used it can lead to replacement parts due to severe damage inside the engine. At the very least it will affect the performance of the vehicle.
It is not necessary for fleets or personal vehicles to be damaged by a misfuelling issue. There are misfuelling devices on the market which can help you put in the right fuel every time you need diesel. One of the misfuelling prevention devices is the FuelSure.
The FuelSure replaces the manufacturer fuel filler cap. As you know, the cap screws into the fuel filler, locking it. By purchasing the FuelSure filler cap you will need to remove the old cap. In its place you will screw on the FuelSure cap. The cap is made of two parts. The first part will remain in place while the actual cap portion will come unscrewed.
Inside the portion that stays on the fuel filler area is a pressure device. The device will only open to allow the larger nozzle through. A smaller nozzle will not provide the right circumference, thus you will prevent misfuelling with the FuelSure filler cap.
You’ve seen how much the repairs can cost you if you drive the vehicle. Even without driving the vehicle you will need to spend the £150 to £300 in order to drain the tank. The chance leaves too much cost out there for you to have to worry about, especially in today’s economy. We don’t have an extra bit of money lying around to correct a misfuelling, so spend a smaller amount on a device that will last for a long time, and prevent a major problem with misfuelling.
By spending a little money you will be able to save a great deal. The best part about the FuelSure device is that you can use it on a variety of different vehicle models, which means all of your cars with diesel engines can be protected.
