Forecourt Rescue Suffolk - 24/7 Wrong Fuel Rescue Services

If you realize you’ve put the wrong fuel in your car, it is crucial not to start the engine or turn on the ignition. Leave your keys completely out of the dashboard to ensure the wrong fuel remains safely isolated inside your tank. Starting the engine can cause serious damage by circulating the incorrect fuel through your vehicle’s system. Once you have safely secured your vehicle, contact Forecourt Rescue Suffolk’s emergency team immediately. We provide 24/7 mobile fuel drain services and will quickly and safely remove the wrong fuel from your tank at your location, helping you avoid costly repairs and get back on the road as soon as possible.
