In Ireland we do not run our own drainers — we put you through to a local one covering Rathkeale, with your vehicle and fuel details already passed on.

In Ireland we do not run our own vans — we work with local fuel drainers and connect you to one covering Rathkeale. 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. ## Fuel fixer in Rathkeale in numbers Town | Rathkeale | Area | County Limerick | Job | Fuel Fixer | Price | Set by the local drainer, agreed before travel | Time on site | 45–90 minutes | Who attends | An independent local drainer | Phone | 01295 380724, 24 hours | ## The drain itself, step by step in Rathkeale The job is quieter than people expect. Tank drained into the van, lines flushed, clean fuel added, engine started and watched for a few minutes. The waste fuel is logged and taken for licensed disposal, and you get a receipt showing what was done. ## What to ask on the phone before a drainer travels to Rathkeale None of these are awkward questions. Any drainer worth calling will answer them before setting off. - Is the vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, and does that change the price? - Do you take card payment 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? ## 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.

If you can safely leave the vehicle there, a drainer can usually work there. If you are just outside Rathkeale, you are probably still in range: Abbeyfeale, Newcastle West, Patrickswell and Castleconnell are all covered by the same drainers. ### Other drains in Rathkeale [Misfuel in Rathkeale](/misfuel/rathkeale/)[Wrong fuel drain cost in Rathkeale](/wrong-fuel-cost/rathkeale/)[Gasoline in diesel in Rathkeale](/gasoline-in-diesel/rathkeale/)[Fuel doctor in Rathkeale](/fuel-doctor/rathkeale/)[Screen wash in diesel tank in Rathkeale](/screen-wash-in-diesel-tank/rathkeale/)[Kerosene collection in Rathkeale](/kerosene-collection/rathkeale/)[Diesel in AdBlue tank in Rathkeale](/diesel-in-adblue-tank/rathkeale/)[Screen wash in AdBlue tank in Rathkeale](/screen-wash-in-adblue-tank/rathkeale/)[Contaminated fuel in in Rathkeale](/contaminated-fuel/rathkeale/)[Petrol in diesel in Rathkeale](/petrol-in-diesel/rathkeale/)[AdBlue in diesel in Rathkeale](/adblue-in-diesel/rathkeale/)[Fuel disposal in Rathkeale](/fuel-disposal/rathkeale/)[Wrong fuel symptoms in Rathkeale](/wrong-fuel-symptoms/rathkeale/)[Wrong fuel in Rathkeale](/wrong-fuel/rathkeale/)[Screen wash in petrol tank in Rathkeale](/screen-wash-in-petrol-tank/rathkeale/)[Kerosene disposal in Rathkeale](/kerosene-disposal/rathkeale/) ### Drainers nearby [Limerick](/areas/limerick/)[Newcastle West](/areas/newcastle-west/)[Abbeyfeale](/areas/abbeyfeale/)[Kilmallock](/areas/kilmallock/)[Adare](/areas/adare/)[Castleconnell](/areas/castleconnell/)[Croom](/areas/croom/)[Askeaton](/areas/askeaton/)[Patrickswell](/areas/patrickswell/)[Newcastle West](/areas/newcastle-west-limerick/) ### More of County Limerick [Limerick](/fuel-fixer/limerick/)[Abbeyfeale](/fuel-fixer/abbeyfeale/)[Adare](/fuel-fixer/adare/)[Askeaton](/fuel-fixer/askeaton/)[Castleconnell](/fuel-fixer/castleconnell/)[Croom](/fuel-fixer/croom/)[Kilmallock](/fuel-fixer/kilmallock/)[Newcastle West](/fuel-fixer/newcastle-west-limerick/)[Patrickswell](/fuel-fixer/patrickswell/) ### From the drainer's notebook [Diesel in petrol in Lancaster: a drainer's notes](/blog/diesel-in-petrol-in-lancaster-drainers-notes/)[Fuel drain in Romford: a drainer's notes](/blog/fuel-drain-in-romford-drainers-notes/)[Petrol in diesel in York: a drainer's notes](/blog/petrol-in-diesel-in-york-drainers-notes/)[Adblue in diesel tank in Darlington: a drainer's notes](/blog/adblue-in-diesel-tank-in-darlington-drainers-notes/)[Water in diesel tank in Dudley: a drainer's notes](/blog/water-in-diesel-tank-in-dudley-drainers-notes/) **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 Rathkeale. 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 **Can I pay by card?** Yes. Card payment is taken on site once the job is done. **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. **Does insurance cover fuel fixer?** Many policies exclude misfuelling. Some breakdown cover and optional add-ons include it. Check your policy wording before assuming either way. **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 you drain a hire car or a company car?** Yes. Tell the hire company or fleet manager too; many prefer a drain on site to a recovery. **How long does a drain take in Rathkeale?** Usually 45 to 90 minutes on site once the drainer arrives. Longer if the engine was started, because the filter and lines need flushing as well as the tank. ### 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.
