# Screen wash in AdBlue tank in Whitleigh Plymouth? Drained where it stands
**Short answer**
The single most useful thing you can do now is nothing — leave the engine off. Then call 01295 380724. A drainer who works Whitleigh Plymouth drains screen wash in the adblue tank on the spot, flushes through and refuels, typically in 1 to 3 hours, with a call-out from £89 confirmed up front.

Screen wash thins the AdBlue out of its precise concentration, and the SCR system will throw a fault; the tank needs draining and flushing.

- Is the vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, and does that change the price?

**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 Whitleigh Plymouth.

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

**Can you drain a van or a lorry?**
Vans, yes, routinely. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes are quoted separately because of the volume involved.

**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.

**How long does a drain take in Whitleigh Plymouth?**
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 you cover all of Whitleigh Plymouth?**
Yes — forecourts, roadsides, homes and workplaces across Whitleigh Plymouth and the surrounding area.

**Can you drain a hire car or a company car?**
Yes. Tell the hire company or fleet manager too; many prefer a drain on site to a recovery.

**What if I have already driven home?**
Leave it on the drive with the engine off and call 01295 380724. The drainer can do the whole job at your house.
