Five things to ask a drainer before they set off
None of these are awkward questions. Any drainer worth calling will answer them before setting off.
- Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it?
- How much more if the engine has already been started?
- Can you work on the forecourt, or does the car need to be moved?
- Is there an extra charge at night or at the weekend?
- How long until you reach me in Bootle Liverpool?
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.

From the drainer's notebook
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 Bootle Liverpool.
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
Can you drain a van or a lorry?
Vans, yes, routinely. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes are quoted separately because of the volume involved.
How long does a drain take in Bootle Liverpool?
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.
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.
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 you cover all of Bootle Liverpool?
Yes — forecourts, roadsides, homes and workplaces across Bootle Liverpool and the surrounding area.
What does it cost in Bootle Liverpool?
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.
