AdBlue in petrol tank in Wexford? We connect you to a drainer
Call 01295 380724 before touching the ignition. We cover Wexford through partner drainers rather than our own vans, and we will connect you to one nearby. AdBlue is mostly water with urea in it; in a petrol tank it corrodes the fuel system and needs a full drain and flush. They quote and confirm before travelling.
How Ireland works
Wrong Fuel Drain operates its own mobile technicians across the UK. In Ireland we do not run our own vans — we work with local fuel drainers and connect you to one covering Wexford. Call 01295 380724 and we will pass you straight to a drainer in your area with the details of the vehicle and the fuels involved, so you are not repeating the story twice. Pricing and attendance times are set by the local operator, not by us, so ask them to confirm both before they travel.

What to expect from the drainer in Wexford
First they confirm what went in and how much, and whether the engine ran — that decides how far they need to go. Then the tank is emptied into a sealed container, the fuel lines and filter are flushed where needed, clean fuel is added and the vehicle is started and checked before they sign it off.
What to ask on the phone before a drainer travels to Wexford
A drainer should be happy to answer all of these on the phone. If they will not give a price before travelling, ring someone else.
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?
- Do you bring clean fuel, and is it included?
- Is there an extra charge at night or at the weekend?
- Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it?
- Do you take card payment at the roadside?
What to do right now
- Stop. Do not start the engine, even for a moment.
- Note the fuel type, the amount you put in and whether the car was already low.
- Ring 01295 380724 and give the location — a postcode or the filling station name is enough.
- Get the full price and an arrival time before you agree.
- A drainer attends, drains and flushes the fuel system where the car is parked.
- Clean fuel goes in, the engine is run, and you drive to the next forecourt to fill up.

Other drains in Wexford
From the drainer's notebook
Fuel Fixer, the company behind Wrong Fuel Drain, holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 2,190 reviews on Trustpilot, on a profile claimed since 2017.
Across recent reviews, the themes customers raise most often are staff who stay polite, professional and reassuring during what is a stressful situation, and how quickly a technician arrives and gets the vehicle back on the road in Wexford.
The most common criticism is price. Some customers have felt the cost of an emergency drain was steep for a job that takes under two hours, and that is fair comment on an emergency call-out. It is why the misfuel call-out fee is set by the local drainer in Ireland and why the full figure is quoted on the phone before a technician sets off — so nothing about the cost is a surprise at the roadside.
Common questions
Do you work at night in Wexford?
Yes. Drainers work 24 hours a day, including weekends and bank holidays.
I only put a little in — do I still need a drain?
In most modern diesels, yes. Even a small amount of petrol reduces the lubrication the pump depends on. A drain is cheap compared with a pump.
Can I pay by card?
Yes. Card payment is taken on site once the job is done.
How long does a drain take in Wexford?
Usually 1 to 3 hours on site once the drainer arrives. Longer if the engine was started, because the filter and lines need flushing as well as the tank.
Is the drain messy?
No. The fuel is pumped into a sealed tank on the van, and a drip tray catches anything from the connection. The area is left as it was.
Will the car need a service afterwards?
Not after a straight drain. If the engine ran on the wrong fuel, the drainer will tell you whether the filter should be changed.
