Screen wash in the AdBlue tank in Stoke Coventry, drained on the spot
Keys out, bonnet shut, hazards on if you are at the roadside. Screen wash in the AdBlue tank in Stoke Coventry is drained on site by a local drainer: pumped out, flushed and refilled in about 1 to 3 hours. Call-out from £89 — call 01295 380724 and you get the figure before anyone drives to you.
Here is why it matters. Screen wash thins the AdBlue out of its precise concentration, and the SCR system will throw a fault; the tank needs draining and flushing.

The drain itself, step by step in Stoke Coventry
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 check the filter and pump if the engine ran?
- Do you take card payment at the roadside?
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?
- Do you bring clean fuel, and is it included?
- How much more if the engine has already been started?
What to do right now
- Stop. Do not start the engine, even for a moment.
- Note the fuel type, the amount you put in and whether the car was already low.
- Ring 01295 380724 and give the location — a postcode or the filling station name is enough.
- Get the full price and an arrival time before you agree.
- A drainer attends, drains and flushes the fuel system where the car is parked.
- Clean fuel goes in, the engine is run, and you drive to the next forecourt to fill up.

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 Stoke Coventry.
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
What does it cost in Stoke Coventry?
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.
How quickly can a drainer reach me in Stoke Coventry?
Usually the same day and often within a couple of hours. The operator gives you an arrival window on 01295 380724 before you agree.
How long does a drain take in Stoke Coventry?
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.
Do I need to stay with the car?
Ideally yes, so the drainer can confirm what happened and hand the keys back. If not, agree access on the phone.
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.
Can you drain a van or a lorry?
Vans, yes, routinely. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes are quoted separately because of the volume involved.
