A local number, not a local building
The number at the top of this page is answered by the people who send technicians to Sunderland. That is what the word local is doing here. It is not standing in for a depot, because Wrong Fuel Sunderland does not have one — the van comes to SR1 to SR6, DH4 and DH5 and the work happens where you are stood. Call 01293 248666.

Why misfuelling happens in Shiney Row
Shiney Row sits across the DH4 postcode district and the A183, with Penshaw, Newbottle, Philadelphia and New Herrington 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.
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.
It is worth knowing this is not a lapse of attention so much as a design gap: the narrower unleaded nozzle fits where it should not, and no forecourt hardware prevents it.
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.
Shiney Row fuel fixer ltd: what to do
The operating group behind this service.
Three questions that tell us most of the story
Did the engine start? How far did it run? Which fuel went in? The first two describe how far contamination has travelled along tank, lift pump, filter, high-pressure pump and injectors. The third describes how it behaves along the way: petrol thins the lubrication a diesel pump needs, while diesel in a petrol engine fouls plugs and injectors instead.
Step by step
- First: nothing Do not turn the key, do not turn the ignition to accessory, do not try the radio. The engine has not run on the wrong fuel yet and that is worth protecting.
- Second: stay where you are Unless you are somewhere dangerous. A vehicle that has not moved is a vehicle whose contamination is still all in one place.
- Third: make the call 01293 248666. Four questions — vehicle, which fuel, roughly how much, did it run — and you get a price and a window before anyone sets off.
- Then we work where the car is Extraction, line flush, fresh fuel, prime, run-up and a check. Nothing needs recovering anywhere.
- And the waste goes properly Registered carrier, waste transfer note, correct consignment. Keep the note; it is the document that protects you, not us.

What drivers tell other drivers
4.8 stars, 2,190 Trustpilot reviews. The advice drivers pass on is simple: do not start the engine, ring, and expect someone level-headed who knows exactly what to do.
The warning they pass on is that it is not cheap. Fair enough — the call-out runs £89 to £199, the drain £199 to £1,999, and both are stated before a van leaves, so nobody is surprised at the roadside.
Questions we get asked
Is there an out-of-hours surcharge?
The call-out is the call-out. Whatever the total is, you hear it on the phone before anyone travels.
How much does it cost in Shiney Row?
Call-out £89 to £199, drain £199 to £1,999. The full price for your vehicle is confirmed on the phone before a technician sets off, so there is no surprise when we arrive.
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.
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.
