What Happens when a Gasoline Car's Fuel Tank Gets Filled with Diesel? | Roberts Automotive and Industrial Parts Manufacturing Corporation

Diesel Fuel

So you’ve accidentally put diesel in your gasoline-fuelled car. How do you remedy this? Well, actually, it’s highly unlikely that you one day end up in this circumstance for cars now have specifically-designed gas tanks that will only fit the nozzle of the fuel it requires; unleaded gasoline nozzles are different from that of diesel.

But let’s just say, hypothetically, that, somehow, someway, an unhealthy amount of diesel found its way inside your gasoline car. Say that you ran out of fuel on the road and instead of getting regular gasoline, you got a metal canister and they pumped diesel instead. Bummer, but you’ve no idea about the mistake, so you pour the contents of that canister with hope and optimism.
