Vehicle Mis-Fuellers

Vehicle mis-fuelling is where a driver may put petrol into their diesel vehicle or vice versa

The SPA Vehicle Mis-fuellers course is specifically made for those Employees and Contractors who work within the vehicle mis-fuelling industry

For contractors working on a Petrol forecourt they still need to also attend the SPA Petrol Retail course

In 2020 a refresher course became available to renew the Core and Mis-fueller’s passports
