Gasoline in diesel in Radford Nottingham, drained on the spot
Put the keys in your pocket and ring 01295 380724. Gasoline in diesel in Radford Nottingham is a drain-and-flush job done at the roadside, on the forecourt or on your drive — no tow, no garage. Call-out from £89, roughly 45 to 90 minutes on site, price agreed first.
Gasoline is petrol. In a diesel engine it thins the fuel and takes away the lubrication the pump and injectors need. Left sitting in the tank, it is a small job.

What the drainer does when they reach you in Radford Nottingham
First they confirm what went in and how much, and whether the engine ran — that decides how far they need to go. Then the tank is emptied into a sealed container, the fuel lines and filter are flushed where needed, clean fuel is added and the vehicle is started and checked before they sign it off.
What to ask on the phone before a drainer travels to Radford Nottingham
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.
- Do you bring clean fuel, and is it included?
- How long until you reach me in Radford Nottingham?
- Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it?
- Will you check the filter and pump if the engine ran?
- Do you take card payment at the roadside?
What to do right now
- Don't turn the key.
- Check what went in: the receipt and the pump number tell you the fuel and the litres.
- Call 01295 380724 with those details and your location.
- Get a price that covers the whole job, then book.
- The drainer arrives, drains the tank, flushes the lines and filter if needed.
- You get clean fuel, a running engine and a note of what was removed.

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 Radford Nottingham.
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 I drive to a garage with gasoline in diesel?
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.
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.
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.
Does insurance cover gasoline in diesel?
Many policies exclude misfuelling. Some breakdown cover and optional add-ons include it. Check your policy wording before assuming either way.
Do you cover all of Radford Nottingham?
Yes — forecourts, roadsides, homes and workplaces across Radford Nottingham and the surrounding area.
Can I pay by card?
Yes. Card payment is taken on site once the job is done.
