⚠️ Emergency Protocol: What to Do Immediately

If you've just put petrol into a diesel car or diesel into a petrol vehicle in Derby, follow these steps to prevent permanent fuel pump damage:


  1. Do NOT Insert or Turn the Key: Even turning the ignition to position one (dashboard lights) can activate the electronic fuel lift pump, drawing contaminated fuel into the primary lines.
  2. Alert Forecourt Staff & Stay Clear: Inform the station attendant so they are aware your vehicle is stationary, and push the car into an off-pump parking space if safe to do so.
  3. Contact Emergency Dispatch: Call 0330 122 6640 or message our team on WhatsApp for an immediate roadside assessment and fixed-rate quote.
