Petrol in a diesel: what to do
Wrong fuel in the tank? Rule number one: don't start the engine.
Don't start the car
If you notice at the pump, don't turn the key or switch on the ignition: as long as the fuel doesn't circulate, the damage is limited.
Have the tank drained
The tank must be drained and the fuel system cleaned. Call us: we arrange recovery and cleaning.
If you already started it
Switch off immediately and don't drive on: you risk damaging the pump and injectors. We run diagnostics and fix it.
