The longer answer What changes the number is not the litres that went in but whether the engine was started. A tank drained before the key turned is a fixed, predictable job. A vehicle driven on the wrong fuel may need a filter, and in the worst cases a high-pressure pump, which is a workshop job rather than a roadside one. Anyone quoting you a single figure for Carlisle without asking whether you started the engine is guessing at the part that matters most. **Short answer**: The call-out is from £89, and the full price for your specific vehicle is confirmed on the phone before a technician set **Cost**: From just £89 misfuel callout fee, quoted before we travel **Where**: Carlisle and CA1 to CA6 **Hours**: 24 hours, every day ## Why the engine matters more than the litres People assume a splash is fine and a full tank is a disaster. It is the other way round. Wrong fuel sitting in a tank is inert — it is a drain. Turn the key and it travels: lift pump, filter, high-pressure pump, injectors, and every stage it reaches adds a component to the bill. Five litres burned is worse than fifty litres left alone. Carlisle is far enough from the next main dealer in any direction that a recovery is a genuinely expensive alternative to a roadside drain. ## What to do now 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.
