## Which mix-up was it?

Petrol in a diesel is the most common and the most harmful mix-up: petrol strips the lubrication from the high-pressure pump. Diesel in a petrol car makes the engine misfire and smoke. AdBlue in the diesel tank sinks to the bottom and crystallises. In every case: do not start the engine.

-

On some cars the fuel pump starts when the driver door opens. Get in from the passenger side if you need to.
-

Hazard lights on. At a station tell the staff; on the road wear a hi-vis vest and wait behind the barrier. Then call [+49 761 59415165](tel:+4976159415165).
