Petrol in Diesel help across West Sussex
From Bognor Regis, Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill to the smallest village, our West Sussex technicians reach most call-outs within the hour.
Diesel engines rely on the fuel itself to lubricate the high-pressure pump and injectors. Petrol is a solvent, so even a few litres strips that lubrication and can grind metal parts together within minutes of running. Caught early, it is a straightforward drain and flush; driven on, it can mean a new pump, injectors and fuel lines.
We know the M23, A23 and A24 and the wider South East road network well, so roadside call-outs are reached fast.

How much petrol is too much in a diesel?
Any amount is worth draining. Modern common-rail diesels are far less tolerant than older engines.
Will my insurance cover petrol in diesel?
Many policies cover misfuelling. We give you an itemised invoice to claim with.

Most call-outs across West Sussex are reached in 20 to 90 minutes, depending on traffic and where you are.
