Call 01293 248666 and you reach the people who dispatch to Middlesbrough, not a national queue.

## Diesel in petrol engine: what to do
Rarer, less destructive, still needs draining.

## What the wrong fuel does on its way through
Diesel lubricates as it passes; petrol dissolves that film and acts as a solvent. Run a diesel high-pressure pump on petrol and it wears fast, shedding fine metal into the injectors behind it. None of that happens while the fuel sits in the tank. All of it starts the moment the engine turns over.

## Step by step
Leave the key alone This is the one that decides the price. Wrong fuel sitting in a tank is a drain; wrong fuel that has been through the engine is a different job.
- Do not push or coast it Moving the vehicle can slosh contaminated fuel toward the pickup. Leave it where it is unless staying there is unsafe.
- Make yourself safe Hazards on. On a forecourt, tell the cashier — they will almost always let you stay put once they know a drainer is coming.
- Call 01293 248666 Tell us the vehicle, which fuel went in, roughly how much, and whether the engine ran. You get a full price before anyone sets off.
- We drain, flush and prime Tank emptied, lines flushed, fresh fuel in, system bled and run up before we go.
- You drive away Most jobs finish on site in about an hour. The old fuel leaves with us under a waste transfer note.

## Four point eight, and why it is not five
2,190 Trustpilot reviews average 4.8. Happy customers write about patience: a technician who explained each step instead of hurrying, at an hour when nobody wanted to be standing on a forecourt.

Most of the missing tenth is money. That is understandable, so the numbers sit in plain sight — call-out £89 to £199, drain £199 to £1,999 — and every figure is agreed by phone first, never revealed on arrival.

## Questions we get asked

**What if I have already driven it?**
Still call. Most vehicles driven a short distance are recoverable. Tell us how far you got, because it changes the kit we bring.

**What about a van or a hire car?**
Same job. With a hire car, ring the hire company too — some policies cover a misfuel drain and it is worth knowing before you pay.

**Will it have done damage?**
If the engine was never started, damage is unlikely. If it ran, the risk rises with the distance driven — which is exactly why we ask.

**Do you work at night?**
Yes, around the clock, every day. A large share of misfuels happen after dark, so the rota reflects that.
