Fuel dispensing guns allow you to pour gasoline into the tanks of vehicles with a diesel engine. Gasoline is not prone to spontaneous combustion and is not a fuel for diesel engines. In addition, it does not have lubricating properties and its use as a fuel can lead to serious failures of injector equipment. This applies in particular to high-pressure common rail systems and unit injectors.

If you unknowingly or carelessly refueled with gasoline instead of diesel fuel, do not start the engine. When using a towing service, it is necessary to transport the car to a workshop, drain the gasoline, fill the tank with diesel fuel and carefully bleed the supply system. In the case of modern actuators, we will only carry out such actions at an authorized workshop.
