The van is the workshop

Everything a drain needs — extraction pump, sealed waste container, fresh fuel, priming kit — travels in the vehicle. That is why Wrong Fuel Carlisle can cover all of CA1 to CA6 without premises anywhere in it, and why the job usually ends where it started rather than at the end of a tow rope. 01293 248666, any hour.

Mobile fueling service: what to do

The equipment travels, not the vehicle.

What actually happens inside the fuel system

Fuel leaves the tank through the lift pump, passes the filter, reaches the high-pressure pump and then the injectors. Petrol in a diesel system strips the lubrication that high-pressure pump depends on, and metal shed by the pump travels downstream into the injectors. That sequence is the whole story: cost depends on whether the engine ran, and for how long, not on how many litres went in.

Step by step

  1. Freeze, then think The reflex is to start up and drive somewhere sensible. Resist it. Nothing about the situation gets worse while the engine stays off.
  2. Where you are is fine A forecourt bay, a kerb, a car park: all workable. Only move if staying put is genuinely dangerous.
  3. Hazards and a quick word Switch the hazards on and tell anyone who needs to know — cashier, passengers, the driver behind.
  4. Ring 01293 248666 with four facts Make, wrong fuel, rough quantity, started or not. Those four facts set the price you are quoted before dispatch.
  5. A technician arrives equipped Pump, sealed waste drum, fresh fuel and priming kit all come in the van. Nothing is towed.
  6. Drive off, document in hand About an hour for a typical job, then a waste transfer note for the old fuel, which is worth keeping.

The pattern across 2,190 reviews

An average of 4.8 on Trustpilot. Positive reviews describe relief — someone arrived sooner than expected and treated an embarrassing error as routine, because for us it is.

Negative reviews describe sticker shock. So the sticker is here: £89 to £199 call-out, £199 to £1,999 drain, and you hear your own figure on the phone, with time to decide, before anyone drives out.

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 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.

Can I just top it up with the right fuel?

No. Dilution does not fix contamination, and driving to a filling station to try it is the mile that turns a drain into a repair.

What happens to the old fuel?

It leaves with us as controlled waste under a waste transfer note. It is not tipped, and it is not resold to you.
