## What "local" actually means here
It means the number is answered by the people who send technicians to Keswick, and that coverage of CA12 and the surrounding area is a dispatch area rather than a marketing claim. It does not mean a building — Wrong Fuel Keswick has no premises and never has. Call 01293 248666 and the equipment comes to you.

## Why misfuelling happens in Legburthwaite
Legburthwaite sits across the CA12 postcode district and the A591, with Wythburn, Keswick, Bassenthwaite and Underskiddaw next door. A large share of local calls come from drivers who have recently switched from petrol to diesel, or the other way, and reached for the nozzle out of habit.

Almost every Keswick call is a visitor. There are so few forecourts in the catchment that everyone uses the same handful, usually in the dark after a day on the fells, frequently in a hire car or a campervan they picked up that week.

The asymmetry is physical. A petrol nozzle fits a diesel car; a diesel nozzle usually will not fit a petrol one. That single difference in nozzle diameter accounts for most of the imbalance in the jobs we attend.

When it happens: Late afternoon and evening, heavily seasonal, with a pronounced spike in school holidays and bank holiday weekends.

## What happens, in order
Stop. Do not turn the key Whatever else happens, this is the decision that matters. Contamination only travels under power.
- Resist the urge to move it The instinct is to get out of the way. Unless you are somewhere dangerous, staying put is the cheaper instinct to follow.
- Safety before diagnosis If you are on a live carriageway, get out and get behind the barrier, and let the police or National Highways deal with the lane first.
- Phone 01293 248666 You will be asked four questions and given a price and an arrival window. Both are honest rather than flattering.
- On-site extraction The tank is emptied, the feed lines are flushed, fresh fuel goes in and the system is primed and run.
- Done, and the waste leaves with us Under a waste transfer note. It is not tipped and it is not sold back to you.

## Rated 4.8 out of 5
From 2,190 Trustpilot reviews. Reviewers consistently pick out arrival times and the fact that technicians talk them through what happened rather than just taking the keys.

Where reviews are critical, it is almost always about price. Rather than ignore that: the call-out is From just £89 misfuel callout fee, quoted in full on the phone before travel, and we would rather lose the job on the call than argue about it on the forecourt.

## Questions we get asked

**Is this a garage?**
No. Wrong Fuel Keswick is mobile. A technician travels to the vehicle wherever it is standing.

**What if I have already driven it?**
Still call. Most vehicles driven a short distance are recoverable. Tell us how far you got, because it changes the kit we bring.

**Do you cover all of CA12 and the surrounding area?**
Yes, from one rota — so being at one edge of the area rather than the other changes the arrival window, not the price.

**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.

**Do I need to stay with the vehicle?**
Usually yes, so we can hand it back to you running. If you cannot stay, say so on the call and we will work out how to do it.

**What happens to the old fuel?**
It leaves with us as controlled waste under a waste transfer note. It is not tipped, and it is not resold to you.
