Drained where it stands **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 St Austell drains adblue in the screen wash tank on the spot, flushes through and refuels, typically in 45 to 90 minutes, with a call-out from £89 confirmed up front. AdBlue in the washer bottle leaves a crystalline film on the glass and attacks seals and paint, so the bottle and lines are drained. Left sitting in the tank, it is a small job.

After that it is a flush, a refuel and a test run before they leave. ## What to ask on the phone before a drainer travels to St Austell You are going to pay for the job, so it is worth two minutes on the phone first.

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 St Austell. 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 **Do you work at night in St Austell?** Yes. Drainers work 24 hours a day, including weekends and bank holidays. **Do I need to stay with the car?** Ideally yes, so the drainer can confirm what happened and hand the keys back. If not, agree access on the phone. **Can I drive to a garage with adblue in the screen wash tank?** No. Every mile pushes the fuel further through the pump and injectors. A drainer comes to you, so there is no reason to move the car under its own power. **Will my engine be damaged?** Not if it has not been started. The wrong fuel sitting in the tank touches nothing that a drain cannot clear. Damage starts once it circulates. **What does it cost in St Austell?** The call-out starts at £89. The full price depends on the vehicle and how far the fuel got, and it is confirmed on 01295 380724 before anyone travels. **Can I pay by card?** Yes. Card payment is taken on site once the job is done. ### Who you are dealing with Wrong Fuel Drain is a brand of [Fuel Fixer Ltd](https://www.fuelfixer.co.uk/) (company number 08520551), a company of Fuel Fixer International, the multinational group behind this website.
