## The short version: misfuel in Fraserburgh
Place | Fraserburgh | 
Area | North Scotland | 
Postcodes | AB4 | 
Job | Misfuel | 
Price | Call-out from £89, full price quoted first |

Phone | 01295 380724, 24 hours | 

## The drain itself, step by step in Fraserburgh
They bring the fuel. Once the tank is empty and the lines are flushed, the drainer adds enough of the correct fuel to get the engine running and to reach a filling station, then checks for warning lights before handing the keys back.

## 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?
- Do you take card payment at the roadside?
- Is the vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, and does that change the price?
- Can you work on the forecourt, or does the car need to be moved?
- How much more if the engine has already been started?

## What to do right now
- Leave the ignition alone — on many cars even unlocking it powers the fuel pump.
- Push the car clear of the pump if needed, with someone steering and the engine off.
- Call 01295 380724 and give the fuel, the amount and your exact location.
- Ask for the whole price, not just the call-out, and agree it.
- The drainer drains the tank into a sealed container and flushes the lines.
- Fresh fuel goes in, the engine is started and the waste fuel leaves with the drainer.

**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 Fraserburgh.

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

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

**How quickly can a drainer reach me in Fraserburgh?**
Usually the same day and often within a couple of hours. The operator gives you an arrival window on 01295 380724 before you agree.

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

**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.

**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.
