One young man and two friends made off with the stolen fuel from Bloom and Wake Garage in Outwell in their light blue car on Sunday, January 19.
The small business is now offering a £50 reward to anyone who can help get the suspects convicted and have launched an online appeal.
In a post online, a spokesman said: "This lovely young gentleman and two friends have just made off with £50 worth of fuel in a light blue car.
"If you know who it is please help us out. We are a small business and can't afford to lose fuel like this.
