  • In this video, we delve into the common yet costly mistake of misfuelling, specifically putting petrol into a diesel vehicle or diesel into a petrol vehicle. We explore the consequences of such an error and provide useful information on how to prevent and rectify it.
    Misfuelling occurs when a driver mistakenly fills their vehicle with the wrong type of fuel. It's an easy mistake to make, especially when you're in a rush or using an unfamiliar vehicle. However, the repercussions can be severe and result in significant damage to the engine and fuel system.
    We discuss the key differences between petrol and diesel fuels and explain why they are incompatible. Petrol and diesel have different chemical compositions and combustion properties, which means they require different types of engines to function properly. When the wrong fuel is used, it can disrupt the engine's performance and lead to costly repairs.
    Our video highlights the symptoms and warning signs that indicate you've misfuelled your vehicle. These may include engine misfires, difficulty starting the engine. Learn about misfuelling, the common mistake of putting petrol into a diesel vehicle or diesel into a petrol vehicle. Discover the potential consequences and tips to avoid this error.

    My friend once ran petrol contaminated with the diesel fuel in his old MK3 golf, it ran okay, a little smoke, but eventually the engine oil level got high, as it seems there was not enough compression to burn the diesel fuel properly, and it ended up getting past the rings into the sump!

    I’m surprised the diesel didn’t also blow a head gasket. Interesting about extrusion or erosion of the injectors. Nope, will not do that at home! 😂

    Interesting! So accidental diesel fill into a petrol car doesn't do much damage, since diesel is too dense to be ignited. But ths other way around is a disaster due to the insane injector pressures and the explosions in the cylinders.

    I always thought that petrol in a diesel would cause an explosion?

    In the beginning it should have started with diesel in fuel lines thats whyt statrting was good but i think when petrol replaced the diesel in fuel line after it was consumed, tgats why it stopped giving performance

    If you are at the pump and realize you have put gas fuel into your diesel truck do not attempt to drive it home call a tow truck get it home siphon out the tank and put in 1 gallon of marvels mystery oil 2 pints of transmission fluid and 1 quart of diesel kleen cetane booster and fill it up with diesel let it sit a few days to let everything congeal and then drive away

    I know the petrol car would not run for two reasons ,one reason is because ive done it before i accidentally put diesel in my old petrol car and and it never worked right again but it was a very old car, and the other reason is diesel doesn't ignite and the spark just wont ignite the diesel . diesel has to be vrey hot to ignite and needs higher compression in the cylinder than a petrol engine can produce .

    Put 15 ltrs petrol in Deisel by mistake the label on the pump.
    So i topped it up with Deisel drove 12 miles no issues .
    Shall I leve it and top up again with diesel or have it professionally drained off.

    I,ve accidentatly put 12 liters of petrol into my diesel car, drove it back home about 2-3 kilometers and my dumb a** also was reving it few times when i noticed lack of power to see what is going one. I,ve parked it under home and get to know what happened. Engine do not stall and it was working allright in neutral, besides sound that was coming when i was reving it. Tomorrow it will be taken to the service. Still hoping my injectors and pump survived it... its 2009 car with common rail.

      How is the car now mate just did the same thang put 9 liter of gas into my diesel engine

    • @MrWiktoreks

      @@user-kz2op2ge6u Do not worry too much mate. They had let down all the petrol in the workshop, filled it up with diesel, changed fuel filter and its all good. I was terrified as my car has common rail and denso injectors but it has survived it. Like i stated before, i was also heavy reving it couple times. Its going to be allright.
