- **Category:** What to do

Stop driving and switch off as soon as it's safe. Running the engine circulates the wrong fuel, but a prompt drain and flush still prevents most damage in the majority of cases. Call for a drain rather than continuing to drive.

**In an emergency:** don't start the engine and call 0800 170 0644.
