## What to expect from the drainer in Huyton
Most of the time is spent draining. A full tank of the wrong fuel takes longer to pump than a few litres, so the drainer will tell you roughly how long it will be once they see the gauge. After that it is a flush, a refuel and a test run before they leave.

## 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.

- Do you bring clean fuel, and is it included?
- Can you work on the forecourt, or does the car need to be moved?
- Will you check the filter and pump if the engine ran?
- Is there an extra charge at night or at the weekend?
- Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it?

## What to do right now
- Leave the key out of the ignition and do not unlock the steering to push the car.
- If you are at the pump, tell the cashier; most forecourts will let the car stay in a bay.
- Call 01295 380724. Say what fuel went in, roughly how much, and where you are.
- Agree the price on the phone. Nobody travels until you have.
- The drainer pumps out the tank, flushes the lines and adds clean fuel.
- They start the engine, check it runs cleanly and take the old fuel away.

**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 Huyton.

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

**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.

**What happens to the fuel you take out?**
It goes into a sealed tank on the drainer's van and is taken for licensed disposal and recycling. It is never tipped away.

**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.

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

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