## Why misfuelling happens in Burgh by Sands
Burgh by Sands sits across the CA5 postcode district and the B5307, with Moorhouse, Beaumont, Kirkandrews-on-Eden and Grinsdale next door. Most calls from this area come from supermarket forecourts at the end of the working day, when the pumps are busy and the driver is thinking about something else.

A large share of Carlisle calls come from drivers who are not from Carlisle — border traffic on the A7 and M6 north, hire cars collected at the station that morning, and long-distance drivers making their last fill before the border.

The asymmetry is physical. A petrol nozzle fits a diesel car; a diesel nozzle usually will not fit a petrol one. That single difference in nozzle diameter accounts for most of the imbalance in the jobs we attend.

When it happens: The busiest window is early evening on the Kingstown and London Road forecourts, and a second, smaller peak overnight from the M6 at Southwaite.

## Burgh by Sands diesel fuel: what to do
Mobile drain and flush, on site, usually inside the hour.

## Following the fuel from filler to injector
Picture the route. Filler neck, tank, a lift pump drawing from the bottom, a filter catching debris, then the high-pressure pump squeezing fuel to enormous pressure for the injectors. Wrong fuel is harmless at the start of that route and expensive at the end of it. Only running the engine moves it along.

## Step by step
Do not start it — that is the whole thing Everything else on this list is detail. This one line is the difference between a call-out and a pump.
- Leave the vehicle where it stopped Pushing or coasting is still movement, and movement is how contaminated fuel finds the pickup.
- Sort out safety Hazards, and get people out of the vehicle if you are anywhere near moving traffic.
- Call 01293 248666 Answered around the clock. Tell us what went in and whether it ran; you get the full price before a technician sets off.
- The job itself Extract, flush, refill, prime, run up, check. Roughly an hour on a standard vehicle.
- Old fuel away, invoice done Controlled waste, transfer note, registered carrier. Keep the note — it is what protects you.

## 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

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

**What if it is not safe to drain where I am?**
Then we tell you that on the phone rather than after arriving. Being told honestly costs nothing; being told on arrival costs a call-out.

**Is this a garage?**
No. Wrong Fuel Carlisle is mobile. A technician travels to the vehicle wherever it is standing.

**Can you come to a supermarket forecourt?**
Yes, and it is where a good proportion of jobs happen. Tell the cashier a drainer is on the way; they are used to it.
