Petrol in AdBlue tank in Frankfield Cork? We connect you to a drainer
Leave the engine off and call 01295 380724. In Ireland we do not run our own drainers — we put you through to a local one covering Frankfield Cork, with your vehicle and fuel details already passed on. Petrol in the AdBlue tank damages the SCR components that meter the urea into the exhaust. Drain it before the engine runs. The local drainer sets and confirms the price before travelling.
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 Frankfield Cork. 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 Frankfield Cork
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
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 take card payment at the roadside?
- 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 bring clean fuel, and is it included?
- Is there an extra charge at night or at the weekend?
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 Frankfield Cork.
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
How long does a drain take in Frankfield Cork?
Usually 1 to 3 hours on site once the drainer arrives. Longer if the engine was started, because the filter and lines need flushing as well as the tank.
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.
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 the car need a service afterwards?
Not after a straight drain. If the engine ran on the wrong fuel, the drainer will tell you whether the filter should be changed.
Can I drive to a garage with petrol in the adblue tank?
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.
Does insurance cover petrol in the adblue tank?
Many policies exclude misfuelling. Some breakdown cover and optional add-ons include it. Check your policy wording before assuming either way.
