$amount = $_POST['amount'];
$litres = $_POST['litres'];
15 $1km = $_POST['1km'];
$2km = $_POST['2km'];
$distance = $_POST['distance'];

$result = mysql_query("UPDATE petrol SET reg='$reg', amount='$amount', litres='$litres', 1km='$1km', 2km='$2km', distance='$distance' WHERE id='$id' ",$connect);

And you cannot do something like this:

15 $1km = $_POST['1km'];
