## On arrival in Mansfield: what happens next
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.

## Before you agree a price: what to ask
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.

- 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?
- 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?
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?

## What to do right now
- Don't press the start button or turn the key.
- Take a photo of the pump display: it shows the fuel type and the litres.
- Ring 01295 380724 and describe where the car is.
- Agree the price before booking — the call-out starts at £89.
- The drainer empties the tank and flushes the system where the car stands.
- They refuel, start the engine and check it before handing back the keys.

**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 Mansfield.

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

**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.

**Can I drive to a garage with misfuel?**
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.

**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.

**What does it cost in Mansfield?**
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.

**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.

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