## Waiting safely on the motorway

- 
### Hazard lights on

Switch them on at once and pull over as far right as possible.
- 
### Hi-vis vest on

Put it on inside the car and get out on the passenger side.
- 
### Warning triangle

At least 150 metres behind the vehicle on the motorway.
- 
### Behind the barrier, then call

Wait behind the crash barrier, never in the car. Call [+49 761 59415165](tel:+4976159415165); if anyone is in danger, call 112.

## If it has just happened: three steps

- 
### Keep the engine off

Do not start the engine or switch on the ignition – not even to move away from the pump.
- 
### Keep the driver door shut if you can

On some cars the fuel pump starts when the driver door opens. Get in from the passenger side if you need to.
- 
### Stay safe and call

Hazard lights on. At a station tell the staff; on the road wear a hi-vis vest and wait behind the barrier. Then call [+49 761 59415165](tel:+4976159415165).

## What happens next

- 
### Only in the tank

If the engine has not run, draining and fresh diesel are usually enough.
- 
### Engine ran briefly

The mix is in filter and lines. We drain, flush and change the filter if needed.
- 
### Engine ran for long

Without lubrication the pump can shed debris into the injectors. A workshop is then usually needed.

## How the job works

- 
### Call and price

Call [+49 761 59415165](tel:+4976159415165). We ask about vehicle, fuel, amount and location and give you the price.
- 
### Engineer on the way

A technician drives to you in a fully equipped service van.
- 
### Drain and flush

The wrong fuel is pumped out, lines and filter are flushed and fresh fuel goes in.
- 
### Restart and invoice

The engine is restarted and checked. You get a VAT invoice; the drained fuel is taken away for disposal.

- 

Price quoted on the first call, before anyone sets off.
-
