Put Petrol in a Diesel Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 CRD?
If you've gone and put the wrong fuel in your Chrysler you probably want to know what you should do about it. The answer to this question depends on the quantity of Petrol you put in your Diesel car.
The first thing we need to look at is the Chrysler's fuel tank capacity. So, what is the fuel capacity of a 2.8-litre Diesel Grand Voyager 2.8 CRD? The answer is: the fuel tank capacity of most Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 CRDs is about 75 litres (according to our database).
What to do about putting Petrol in a Diesel Chrysler will vary dependent on the amount of Petrol 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 3.75 litres of Petrol in a Diesel Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 CRD 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 3.75 and 7.5 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 7.5 litres of the wrong fuel in your Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 CRD then you should definitely get it drained. This equates to more than 10% contamination and exceeds any "safe" contamination level.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about dawn and noone was around. It had become quite quiet until now, and me and John were relaxing looking through several old magazines. It was an unusual restful moment. It was in fact so tranquil that the moment the phone inevitably rang I leaped! The person on the phone stated: "I only just ended my evening shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a Chrysler". I told him to let us know just where the vehicle was and we headed out, reaching him an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he said thank you for showing up so promptly. As we were coming back to the depot we noticed two women on the edge of the street who seemed like they had a flat tyre. So we got out to change it, to their elation.
