Busy forecourts on the main route through are where most of it happens, usually in the dark and usually in a hurry. Teesside calls are more commercial than almost anywhere else in the network: process-plant fleets, port and freight traffic, and contractor vans. Drivers in a works vehicle they do not normally take out are the single most over-represented group in misfuel work. 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 patterns rather than rush hours, plus a summer coastal peak towards Redcar and Saltburn on the A174. ## What happens, in order Leave the key alone This is the one that decides the price. Wrong fuel sitting in a tank is a drain; wrong fuel that has been through the engine is a different job. - Do not push or coast it Moving the vehicle can slosh contaminated fuel toward the pickup. Leave it where it is unless staying there is unsafe. - Make yourself safe Hazards on. On a forecourt, tell the cashier — they will almost always let you stay put once they know a drainer is coming. - Call 01293 248666 Tell us the vehicle, which fuel went in, roughly how much, and whether the engine ran. You get a full price before anyone sets off. - We drain, flush and prime Tank emptied, lines flushed, fresh fuel in, system bled and run up before we go. - You drive away Most jobs finish on site in about an hour. The old fuel leaves with us under a waste transfer note. ## Petrol disposal near Linthorpe - Middlesbrough - Acklam - Stockton-on-Tees - Thornaby - Long Newton - Bishopton ## Other services in Linthorpe - Petrol in diesel in Linthorpe - Diesel in petrol in Linthorpe - Fuel doctor in Linthorpe - AdBlue in diesel in Linthorpe - Small amount of petrol in Linthorpe - Unleaded in diesel in Linthorpe - Misfuel in Linthorpe - Fuel drain in Linthorpe - Mobile fuel drain in Linthorpe - Wrong fuel rescue in Linthorpe ## More about Linthorpe - Linthorpe coverage - All of Teesside ## What people actually said 4.8 out of 5 from 2,190 Trustpilot reviews. Two themes dominate the positive ones — how fast someone arrived, and how calm they were about it. The recurring negative is price. Publishing that alongside the answer seems more useful than hiding it: From just £89 misfuel callout fee is the call-out, the total is quoted before a technician moves, and there is no charge for being told on the phone that this is a job for a workshop. ## Questions we get asked **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. **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. **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. **Do you cover all of the TS postcode area?** Yes, from one rota — so being at one edge of the area rather than the other changes the arrival window, not the price. **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. ## Who you are dealing with Wrong Fuel Teesside is a service by Forecourt Assist.
