Towing & recovery
Petrol in a diesel at South Mimms
Do not start it. Do not 'just get home'. A misfuel on the South Mimms forecourt is a drain and a recovery, not a pep talk. Stay where you are. We come, we make it safe to move, we take it if it cannot be sorted on the spot.
On the job
- Stay on the forecourt — driving it is how you buy an engine
- Drain and recovery depending on how far it went
- South Mimms, Bignell's Corner, and EN6 stations
- We tell you on the phone if this is us or a specialist flush
Usual questions
I already drove a mile. Now what?
Stop. Tell us how far and whether it was petrol in diesel or the other way. The answer changes. Do not keep going.
Can you fix it on the forecourt?
Sometimes a drain is enough if it never ran. If it has been driven, it may need more than we do at the kerb. We say so.
Will the petrol station help?
They will want the pump free. That is why you call us rather than sit on the island arguing.
