petrol in a diesel

[scooters]

All. Just put 2 liters of petrol in a (2006)140 engine but filled to the brim with diesel. Do you think that I've knackered the engine? Unfortunately I didnthave time to get it drained

Just two litres is very unlikely to do any damage as you did the right thing and brimmed it straight away.

The worst you may get is the engine may sound a little louder (Tapping sound?) until the fuel has gone through!

2 ltr will be OK... just fill it up again when it gets 3/4 and keep doing that for a couple of weeks rather than run it to empty

As said two litres in a tank wont cause any problems

A lad at work filled one of those Honda Civic Hybrid things with 20 litres of diesel and 30 litres of petrol last week and that's still trundling along ok!

You'll be fine!

(I can't imagine the feeling of horror when you realised what you'd done!!?)

A friend of mine recently broke down after filling £70 of petrol into his diesel van, and upon realising what he had done managed to get £5 of diesel on top!! He figured it would mix and thought it would be ok??????

He actually made about two miles which I thought was impressive!

Stupid is as stupid does!!!
