⚠️ Daihatsu overview
Daihatsu was Toyota’s compact-car subsidiary. Daihatsu passenger models were sold in the UK until the brand withdrew around 2011; many remain in use. Petrol-only UK line-ups share Toyota Group fuel-system architecture, so misfuel recovery follows similar pump-access and tank fuel extraction procedures documented for equivalent Toyota platforms.

Fuel system notes
- UK Daihatsu models were overwhelmingly petrol; diesel was not offered on mainstream UK imports.
- Filler-neck anti-siphon and ORVR-style rollover valves are typical; do not force hoses past the neck valve.
- Fuel pump access is usually via a panel under the rear seat on hatchbacks; consult model-year Techdoc.

Frequently asked questions
Can I still get Daihatsu service information in the UK?
Dealers are gone, but Toyota Group Techdoc and specialist independents can access archived procedures. GBIFDA technicians document the tank access method used on each job.
I put diesel in my Daihatsu petrol car — what now?
Do not start the engine. Recover the vehicle and extract fuel from the tank before cranking. Diesel in a petrol engine can damage the catalytic converter if run.
