## Why misfuelling happens in Fulwell
Fulwell sits across the SR6 postcode district and the A1018, with Cleadon, Monkwearmouth, East Boldon and West Boldon next door. The pattern here is the first fill of an unfamiliar car — a hire vehicle, a courtesy car after a repair, or a van the driver does not normally take out.

Wearside calls lean heavily industrial: plant and supply-chain traffic filling at the same A19 forecourts at shift change, plus a large Washington van and fleet population on the Sunderland Highway.

Why one direction so outnumbers the other comes down to the pumps themselves. Diesel nozzles are wider than petrol filler necks at most forecourts, so that mistake is largely designed out. Nothing designs out the reverse.

When it happens: Shift change on the A19, and a separate residential pattern on Durham Road and Chester Road that skews towards the first tank after someone changes car.

## What happens, in order
The single rule Leave the engine off. Everything else on this list is secondary to that one instruction.
- Do not reposition the car Pushing it into a bay feels considerate but it disturbs the fuel. Stay put unless you are in danger.
- If it is dangerous, get out On a verge or live road, everybody out on the side away from traffic and behind the barrier. Then call.
- Call 01293 248666, day or night Answered around the clock. Describe the vehicle and what happened; the full price is confirmed on that call.
- The fix, where you stand Drain, flush, refill, prime and run-up, carried out at the roadside or on the forecourt.
- Finished properly The waste is taken away by a registered carrier with the transfer note, and you get an invoice.

## Questions we get asked

**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.

**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.
