Why the fuel type matters

Engine systems are designed for their specified fuel. An incorrect fill can change operating conditions. Consequences vary by vehicle and use; universal claims about damage are unreliable.

Avoid improvised fixes

Do not start if you discover the mistake before departure. Avoid siphoning fuel yourself or adding mixtures. A professional assesses quantity, vehicle type and whether the engine has already run.

Agree on the follow-up

Ask whether work can be done on site and what assessment should follow. For transport, confirm the garage and opening hours. Keep the receipt and intervention details without assuming any particular insurance coverage.
