Misfuel in Gorey, Ireland
Don't start it. Misfuel in Gorey is handled by a local drainer we work with in Ireland — call 01295 380724 and we hand you over with the details. Misfuelling is the trade's word for filling up with the wrong fuel. It is fixed on site with a drain and a flush. Pricing is the local operator's, agreed with you first.
How Ireland works
Wrong Fuel Drain operates its own mobile technicians across the UK. In Ireland we do not run our own vans — we work with local fuel drainers and connect you to one covering Gorey. 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.

The drain itself, step by step in Gorey
On a forecourt the drainer will usually move the vehicle off the pump lane first, by hand, with the engine off. Then it is drain, flush, refuel and start. At home or at work they can do the whole thing on the drive or in the car park without moving it at all.
Five things to ask a drainer before they set off
A drainer should be happy to answer all of these on the phone. If they will not give a price before travelling, ring someone else.
- Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it?
- Can you work on the forecourt, or does the car need to be moved?
- Is the vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, and does that change the price?
- Do you take card payment at the roadside?
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?
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.
Forecourt, roadside or drive: where we drain in Gorey
Most drains in Gorey 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 drainers who cover Gorey also work Rosslare, Wexford, Enniscorthy and Ferns, so a call from any of them is handled the same way.
Other drains in Gorey
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 Gorey.
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
Do you cover all of Gorey?
Yes — forecourts, roadsides, homes and workplaces across Gorey and the surrounding area.
Does insurance cover misfuel?
Many policies exclude misfuelling. Some breakdown cover and optional add-ons include it. Check your policy wording before assuming either way.
What does it cost in Gorey?
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.
I only put a little in — do I still need a drain?
In most modern diesels, yes. Even a small amount of petrol reduces the lubrication the pump depends on. A drain is cheap compared with a pump.
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.
Do you work at night in Gorey?
Yes. Drainers work 24 hours a day, including weekends and bank holidays.
