## Put unleaded gas in diesel truck: what to do
Bigger tanks, more urgency, same roadside fix.

## Why a full tank can be the cheap outcome
Sixty litres of the wrong fuel that never reached the engine is one of the simplest jobs there is: extract, flush the lines, refill, prime. A small splash driven for several miles can cost more, because it has had time to reach components that wear.

## Step by step
Stop. Do not turn the key Whatever else happens, this is the decision that matters. Contamination only travels under power.
- Resist the urge to move it The instinct is to get out of the way. Unless you are somewhere dangerous, staying put is the cheaper instinct to follow.
- Safety before diagnosis If you are on a live carriageway, get out and get behind the barrier, and let the police or National Highways deal with the lane first.
- Phone 01293 248666 You will be asked four questions and given a price and an arrival window. Both are honest rather than flattering.
- On-site extraction The tank is emptied, the feed lines are flushed, fresh fuel goes in and the system is primed and run.
- Done, and the waste leaves with us Under a waste transfer note. It is not tipped and it is not sold back to you.

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

**How long will I be waiting?**
Arrival depends where you are across SR1 to SR6, DH4 and DH5 and what is already running. You get a realistic window on the call rather than an optimistic one.

**What about a van or a hire car?**
Same job. With a hire car, ring the hire company too — some policies cover a misfuel drain and it is worth knowing before you pay.

**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.
