## What the drainer does when they reach you in Radford
The drainer parks up, checks the vehicle has not been started and makes the area safe with cones and a drip tray. The fuel is pumped out through the filler or the fuel line into a sealed tank on the van, the lines are flushed, a few litres of the right fuel go in, and the engine is started and run until it idles cleanly. The contaminated fuel leaves with them.

## Five things to ask a drainer before they set off
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.

- Will you check the filter and pump if the engine ran?
- Is there an extra charge at night or at the weekend?
- Do you bring clean fuel, and is it included?
- Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it?
- Is the vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, and does that change the price?

## What to do right now
- Keep the engine off and put the keys somewhere you will not absent-mindedly use them.
- Move the car only by pushing, with help, and only if it is blocking a pump.
- Phone 01295 380724 and describe what happened.
- Confirm the quote — call-out from £89 — and the arrival window.
- The drainer empties the tank into a sealed container and flushes through.
- After a refuel and a test run, the waste fuel leaves with the drainer for licensed disposal.

Drainers cover postcode districts CV6, NG7, and the roads either side of them, across Warwickshire.

## Where you can be drained in Radford
Most drains in Radford happen on the forecourt where the mistake was made. The rest are at the roadside after the car cut out, or on a drive the next morning. All three work; the vehicle does not need to be towed anywhere.

The same van covers Whitmore Park, Hyson Green, Forest Fields and Lenton, which usually keeps arrival times short across this side of Warwickshire.

## What a drain costs in Radford
The call-out starts at £89. The total depends on how far the fuel travelled, and is confirmed on the phone before a drainer sets off.

**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 Radford.

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 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.

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

**Do you work at night in Radford?**
Yes. Drainers work 24 hours a day, including weekends and bank holidays.

**Can you drain a van or a lorry?**
Vans, yes, routinely. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes are quoted separately because of the volume involved.

**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.
