What to Do If You Put the Wrong Fuel in a Car

The error is usually when a diesel-fueled car is filled with gasoline, or sometimes vice versa. If you have filled the wrong fuel, you don't need to worry, because there is still a solution. Leave your engine switched off and avoid putting your key in the ignition. Do not start the vehicle engine and immediately drain the fuel.

Your fuel tank needs to be drained before you drive the car. The petrol will act as a solvent, damaging the fuel pump and other parts of the fuel system. If left unchecked, this could mean a costly repair of your car's fuel system, or a complete replacement of the fuel pump, diesel injectors, filters and fuel tank.
