What to do if you misfuel your car

If you're lucky enough to realise you’ve put the wrong fuel in your car before starting your engine, do the following:

  1. Leave the engine switched off and don't even put your key in the ignition

  2. Inform the staff at the service station.

  3. You'll be advised to leave your car where it is, or it will be pushed to a safe place

  4. Call us to drain and flush the wrong fuel out of your car. We will be able drain and flush your vehicle's fuel system and get you on your way, unless there's more serious damage.

  1. If you’ve already started your engine, turn off the ignition immediately.

  2. If you're already moving, pull over to a safe spot, then switch off.

  3. Again, Call us to drain and flush the wrong fuel out of your car.

How to prevent misfuelling your car

  1. Stop and think when you arrive at a service station to refuel and don’t allow yourself to get distracted.

  2. Read the label on the pump and nozzle and double-check the information on the inside of your car’s fuel flap. A circular ‘E10’ or ‘E5’ label denotes petrol, while a square ‘B7’ sign means it's a diesel dispenser. ‘E’ stands for ethanol and ‘B’ for biodiesel.

  3. Check the colour of the fuel nozzle (black for diesel, green for petrol), but don't rely 100% on this colour coding.

  4. If you’re driving a new or unfamiliar vehicle, check and double check the labelling on the inside of the car’s fuel flap.

  5. If you're a diesel car driver, fit an adaptor which replaces the existing filler cap. This prevents you from accidentally putting a petrol nozzle into a diesel filler neck.

  6. If you’re still worried, the best way to avoid misfuelling is to put a sticker on the outside of the fuel flap reminding you which fuel is required.
