Wrong Fuel in Derby? Call Car Recovery Derby for Fast, Safe Fuel Drain Services
Accidentally Filled Up with the Wrong Fuel? Don’t Start the Engine!
Putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle—whether petrol in a diesel tank or diesel in a petrol engine—is more common than you think. The most important step? Do not start the engine. Running your vehicle with the wrong fuel can lead to serious damage to components like the fuel pump, injectors, or even the entire engine.
At Car Recovery Derby, we specialise in safe, efficient wrong fuel removal services to protect your vehicle and get you back on the road with minimal disruption.

Why Time Matters When You’ve Misfuelled
The longer the wrong fuel stays in your system—especially if the engine is started—the higher the risk of costly damage. Issues may include:
Fuel pump or injector failure
Loss of power, engine stalling, or misfiring
Damage to the catalytic converter or emissions system
Potential complete engine failure
To avoid these complications, switch off your ignition immediately and contact Car Recovery Derby for professional assistance.
