AdBlue in the petrol tank in Wollaton Nottingham, drained on the spot

Short answer

The single most useful thing you can do now is nothing — leave the engine off. Then call 01295 380724. A drainer who works Wollaton Nottingham drains adblue in the petrol tank on the spot, flushes through and refuels, typically in 1 to 3 hours, with a call-out from £89 confirmed up front.

Here is why it matters. AdBlue is mostly water with urea in it; in a petrol tank it corrodes the fuel system and needs a full drain and flush.

What the drainer does when they reach you in Wollaton Nottingham

On a forecourt the drainer will usually move the vehicle off the pump lane first, by hand, with the engine off. Then it is drain, flush, refuel and start. At home or at work they can do the whole thing on the drive or in the car park without moving it at all.

Questions worth asking before you book a drain in Wollaton Nottingham

You are going to pay for the job, so it is worth two minutes on the phone first. These are the questions that separate a straight quote from a surprise at the roadside.

What to do right now

  1. Leave the ignition alone — on many cars even unlocking it powers the fuel pump.
  2. Push the car clear of the pump if needed, with someone steering and the engine off.
  3. Call 01295 380724 and give the fuel, the amount and your exact location.
  4. Ask for the whole price, not just the call-out, and agree it.
  5. The drainer drains the tank into a sealed container and flushes the lines.
  6. Fresh fuel goes in, the engine is started and the waste fuel leaves with the drainer.

From the drainer's notebook

4.8 out of 5 ★★★★★

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 Wollaton Nottingham.

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 now starts at just £89 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

The engine is running rough — is that the wrong fuel?

If it started shortly after filling up, very likely. Pull over when it is safe, switch off and call 01295 380724.

Do I need to move the car off the forecourt?

Only if it is blocking a pump. Push it into a bay with help and the engine off; the drainer can work there.

Can I pay by card?

Yes. Card payment is taken on site once the job is done.

Will you bring fuel?

Yes. The drainer adds enough of the correct fuel to start the engine and reach a filling station.

Can you drain a van or a lorry?

Vans, yes, routinely. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes are quoted separately because of the volume involved.

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.
