Hi
My dizzy wife just put 11 litres of unleaded PETROL (gasoline to our Cousins in the US) in her DIESEL Chrysler 2.5CRD (2003 model)
There was probably about a quarter tank of Diesel in it before she refuelled so 11 litres of unleaded petrol went on top of that, THEN she realised her error and put 40 Litres of DIESEL in on top of it !
Result, probably about a mixture of 5 parts Diesel 1 part Petrol !!!
One Guy in the Garage said she must NOT move the car as it would damage the engine and needed to be drained out completely etc etc etc
Then an RAC man on a bike ( who was refuelling himself ) said that most Diesels will run just fine with a little bit of Unleaded mixed in, he went on to say that my missus could run it on sunflower oil or chip pan fat too ?
The garages are shut for the weekend of course and she already drove it home about 3 miles without noticing a difference
Who is right, The RAC man or the Garage attendant ?
Has she ruined it already?
Thanks in advance
