We connect you to a drainer **Short answer** Call 01295 380724 before touching the ignition. We cover Bray through partner drainers rather than our own vans, and we will connect you to one nearby. Water, dirt, microbial growth or stale fuel all behave like a misfuel: rough running, loss of power, a clogged filter. It comes out the same way. They quote and confirm before travelling. [Call 01295 380724 — 24/7, nationwide](tel:+441295380724) ### 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 Bray. 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. ## Contaminated fuel in a car in Bray at a glance Town | Bray | Area | County Wicklow | Job | Contaminated or bad fuel | Price | Set by the local drainer, agreed before travel | Time on site | 1–2 hours | Who attends | An independent local drainer | Phone | 01295 380724, 24 hours | ## On arrival in Bray: what happens next Most of the time is spent draining. A full tank of the wrong fuel takes longer to pump than a few litres, so the drainer will tell you roughly how long it will be once they see the gauge. After that it is a flush, a refuel and a test run before they leave. ## Five things to ask a drainer before they set off 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. - Do you bring clean fuel, and is it included? - Will you check the filter and pump if the engine ran? - Do you take card payment at the roadside? - Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it? - How long until you reach me in Bray? ## What to do right now - Leave the key out of the ignition and do not unlock the steering to push the car. - If you are at the pump, tell the cashier; most forecourts will let the car stay in a bay. - Call 01295 380724. Say what fuel went in, roughly how much, and where you are. - Agree the price on the phone. Nobody travels until you have. - The drainer pumps out the tank, flushes the lines and adds clean fuel. - They start the engine, check it runs cleanly and take the old fuel away.

Otherwise the drainer can work on your drive, at your workplace or at the kerb outside. Nearby, drainers regularly attend Greystones, Arklow, Baltinglass and Wicklow as well. ### Other drains in Bray [Wrong fuel rescue in Bray](/wrong-fuel-rescue/bray-wicklow/)[Misfuel in Bray](/misfuel/bray-wicklow/)[Wrong fuel symptoms in Bray](/wrong-fuel-symptoms/bray-wicklow/)[AdBlue in screen wash tank in Bray](/adblue-in-screen-wash-tank/bray-wicklow/)[Kerosene collection in Bray](/kerosene-collection/bray-wicklow/)[Diesel in gasoline in Bray](/diesel-in-gasoline/bray-wicklow/)[Kerosene disposal in Bray](/kerosene-disposal/bray-wicklow/)[AdBlue in petrol tank in Bray](/adblue-in-petrol-tank/bray-wicklow/)[Wrong fuel in Bray](/wrong-fuel/bray-wicklow/)[Wrong fuel drain cost in Bray](/wrong-fuel-cost/bray-wicklow/)[Water in diesel tank in Bray](/water-in-diesel-tank/bray-wicklow/)[Petrol in diesel in Bray](/petrol-in-diesel/bray-wicklow/)[Fuel fixer in Bray](/fuel-fixer/bray-wicklow/)[Water in screen wash tank in Bray](/water-in-screen-wash-tank/bray-wicklow/)[Screen wash in petrol tank in Bray](/screen-wash-in-petrol-tank/bray-wicklow/)[Diesel in AdBlue tank in Bray](/diesel-in-adblue-tank/bray-wicklow/) ### Drainers nearby [Greystones](/areas/greystones/)[Wicklow](/areas/wicklow/)[Arklow](/areas/arklow/)[Blessington](/areas/blessington/)[Newtownmountkennedy](/areas/newtownmountkennedy/)[Rathdrum](/areas/rathdrum/)[Baltinglass](/areas/baltinglass/)[Enniskerry](/areas/enniskerry/)[Kilcoole](/areas/kilcoole/)[Greystones](/areas/greystones-wicklow/) ### More of County Wicklow [Wicklow](/contaminated-fuel/wicklow/)[Arklow](/contaminated-fuel/arklow/)[Baltinglass](/contaminated-fuel/baltinglass/)[Blessington](/contaminated-fuel/blessington/)[Enniskerry](/contaminated-fuel/enniskerry/)[Greystones](/contaminated-fuel/greystones-wicklow/)[Kilcoole](/contaminated-fuel/kilcoole/)[Newtownmountkennedy](/contaminated-fuel/newtownmountkennedy/)[Rathdrum](/contaminated-fuel/rathdrum/) ### From the drainer's notebook [Diesel in petrol in Perth: a drainer's notes](/blog/diesel-in-petrol-in-perth-drainers-notes/)[Fuel drain in Bedford: a drainer's notes](/blog/fuel-drain-in-bedford-drainers-notes/)[Petrol in diesel in High Wycombe: a drainer's notes](/blog/petrol-in-diesel-in-high-wycombe-drainers-notes/)[Adblue in diesel tank in Redditch: a drainer's notes](/blog/adblue-in-diesel-tank-in-redditch-drainers-notes/)[Water in diesel tank in Solihull: a drainer's notes](/blog/water-in-diesel-tank-in-solihull-drainers-notes/) ### Answers [How to fix contaminated fuel?](/answers/how-to-fix-contaminated-fuel/)[How to dispose of old fuel?](/answers/how-to-dispose-of-old-fuel/)[How to get rid of water in diesel fuel?](/answers/how-to-get-rid-of-water-in-diesel-fuel/)[How to dispose of old fuel uk?](/answers/how-to-dispose-of-old-fuel-uk/)[How much water in diesel tank is bad?](/answers/how-much-water-in-diesel-tank-is-bad/) **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](https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.fuelfixer.co.uk), 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 Bray. 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 **What happens to the fuel you take out?** It goes into a sealed tank on the drainer's van and is taken for licensed disposal and recycling. It is never tipped away. **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. **Do you cover all of Bray?** Yes — forecourts, roadsides, homes and workplaces across Bray and the surrounding area. **How long does a drain take in Bray?** Usually 1 to 2 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. **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. **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. ### 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.
