Put Diesel in a Petrol Daewoo Rezzo 2.0?
If you've gone and put the wrong fuel in your Daewoo you probably want to know what you should do about it. The answer to this question depends on the quantity of Diesel you put in your Petrol car.
The first thing we need to look at is the Daewoo's fuel tank capacity. So, what is the fuel capacity of a 2-litre Petrol Rezzo 2.0? The answer is: the fuel tank capacity of most Daewoo Rezzo 2.0s is about 60 litres (according to our database).
What to do about putting Diesel in a Petrol Daewoo will vary dependent on the amount of Diesel used. So, there are three possible scenarios:
(Please Note: These figures are approximates. Running an engine on any amount of incorrect fuel can cause damage, regardless of contamination percentage. Information given here is advice based solely on our customer reports and case histories. Full details should be procured from your vehicle manufacturer.)- FIVE PERCENT: If you put less than 3 litres of Diesel in a Petrol Daewoo Rezzo 2.0 then in most cases, if the car's tank is completely filled with the correct fuel before it is started, it will probably be fine.
- FIVE TO TEN PERCENT: If you've put between 3 and 6 litres then you should probably give us a call. This is the grey area where sometimes you can get away with just topping it up, and sometimes you can't. Call us and, with a bit more information, we'll be able to give you the best advice on what to do next.
- If you've put more than 6 litres of the wrong fuel in your Daewoo Rezzo 2.0 then you should definitely get it drained. This equates to more than 10% contamination and exceeds any "safe" contamination level.

We got a telephone call from a individual whose Daewoo had conked out on a road because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I mixed up the pumps and pumped the wrong fuel in my car . Fuel Fixer Ltd arrived and sorted out the issue when my car gave up." We drained the wrong fuel from the diesel tank and flushed the system thoroughly afterwards and the motorist was able to continue on with his scheduled delivery.
