Drain Petrol from Diesel help across Cumbria
Our technicians are out across Cumbria around the clock, covering Penrith, Workington and Barrow-in-Furness and everywhere in between.
Draining petrol from a diesel properly means emptying the tank completely, flushing anything the pump has already drawn in and refilling with clean diesel. Shortcuts like topping up with diesel to dilute the mix still leave petrol in the system, and that wears the pump.
Breakdowns on the A595, M6 and A66 are reached quickly, and we attend lay-bys, services and car parks as well as forecourts.

Drain Petrol from Diesel in Cumbria: FAQs
Can I just top up with diesel to dilute it?
We don't recommend it. Even a diluted mix strips lubrication from the pump. A full drain is safer and often cheaper in the long run.
How much does it cost to drain petrol from a diesel in Cumbria?
We quote a fixed price on the phone. It depends on the vehicle, tank size and whether the engine has been run.
Do you take the drained fuel away?
Yes. We remove all the contaminated fuel and dispose of it through licensed channels.
How quickly can you get to me in Cumbria?
Most call-outs across Cumbria are reached in 20 to 90 minutes, depending on traffic and where you are.
