What Happens When Diesel Is Added to a Petrol Car?
Putting diesel into a petrol car can cause significant engine and fuel system issues. Petrol engines rely on spark plugs to ignite the fuel, but diesel does not ignite the same way. If diesel reaches your engine, it may:
The severity of the damage depends on how much diesel was added, whether the engine was started, and how far the vehicle was driven. If the engine hasn’t started, the issue can usually be fixed quickly and without damage.

What to Do If You’ve Put Diesel in a Petrol Vehicle
If you’ve filled your petrol tank with diesel, follow these steps:
1. Do Not Start the Engine
This is the most critical step. Even turning the key can activate the fuel system in modern vehicles, allowing diesel to enter the engine. Avoid starting the car completely.
2. Move the Car to a Safe Spot
If you're at a petrol station and it’s safe to do so, put the car in neutral and move it with help from others. Do not turn the ignition on.
3. Call the wrong fuel Solutions immediately.
Our mobile fuel drain technicians are trained to deal with diesel in petrol misfuelling incidents. We’ll be with you as quickly as possible, often within 30–45 minutes.
