We come to you: servo, home, work or roadside.

The next two minutes

1

Don't start the engine. Don't even turn the key.

This is the single most important thing. If the engine hasn't run, the contaminated fuel is sitting safely in the tank. The minute the engine starts, that fuel gets pulled through the parts it can damage.

2

Tell the servo attendant.

They'll let you push the car clear of the pump so other customers can fuel up. Don't be embarrassed, this happens every day to plumbers, paramedics, parents and mechanics.

3

Call us on (08) 7083 9699.

A real technician answers 24/7. We'll quote on the phone, dispatch a van, and most metro jobs are with you inside the hour. Tell us the make and model, the suburb, and which way the mix up went, petrol in a diesel or diesel in a petrol car.

4

Have your keys ready and stay near the car.

We'll text an ETA once the van is rolling. Have your keys handy and stay close so we can get going the moment we arrive.

5

Skip the tow truck.

Towing this car to a workshop turns a one hour fix into a three day fix. We do the whole job on site, drain, flush, refuel, run check, and you drive away. Same place, same day.

What not to do

  • Don't start the engine to "see if it's OK." Every ignition cycle pulls more contaminated fuel through the system, and the flush takes longer. Already started it? Call us, we can still fix it on the spot.
  • Don't top up with the correct fuel hoping to dilute it. That just spreads the contamination through more of the tank.
  • Don't drive it "just to the workshop." The sooner you stop, the shorter the flush. We do the whole drain kerbside, same place, same call.
  • Don't panic. You're not the first. Most cars drive away with no lasting harm if you stop now.

Call now. We're ready.
