What Can I Do If I Put Petrol In Diesel Car
If you've accidentally put petrol in a diesel car, it's important to act quickly to prevent damage to the engine. Here's what you should do:
​
1. Don't Start the Car
-
Key advice: The moment you realize the mistake, don’t start the engine. Petrol can cause serious damage to a diesel engine because it lacks the lubricating properties of diesel fuel, and starting the engine could lead to fuel system damage.
​
2. Push the Car to a Safe Spot
-
If you're at a petrol station or on the roadside, move the car to a safe place to avoid blocking traffic.
​
3. Call US for Help (Our Wrong Fuel Drain Service Avaialble 24/7)
-
Contact us for a wrong fuel drain service and we come to you anywhere in Suffolk.
-
Don't attempt to drive it: Even if the car starts, driving it can cause further damage, especially to the fuel pump, injectors, and engine components.
​
4. Drain the Fuel Tank
-
Our technician will drain the contaminated fuel from your tank. This involves removing the fuel from both the tank and the fuel lines.
-
The technician may also flush the system to ensure no fuel remains in the fuel lines, filters, or injectors.
​
5. Refuel with Diesel
-
After the contaminated fuel is removed, your fuel tank will be refilled with the appropriate fuel.
​
6. Prevention for the Future
-
Be extra cautious when refueling to avoid making the same mistake. Petrol stations even have different nozzle sizes for petrol and diesel to prevent mix-ups.
