# Wrong fuel engine damage in Fraserburgh, drained on the spot
**Short answer**
Before anything else, keep the key out of the ignition. A drainer covering Fraserburgh can be with you the same day for wrong fuel engine damage, drain it where the car stands and have you moving in about 1 to 3 hours. The misfuel call-out is £89 and the total is quoted on 01295 380724 before they travel.

The mechanism is simple. In the tank it harms nothing. It is the pump and injectors that suffer once it circulates, which is where the cost comes from.

## What the drainer does when they reach you in Fraserburgh
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.

## Questions worth asking before you book a drain in Fraserburgh
None of these are awkward questions. Any drainer worth calling will answer them before setting off.

- Do you take card payment at the roadside?
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?
- How much more if the engine has already been started?
- How long until you reach me in Fraserburgh?
- Will you check the filter and pump if the engine ran?

## 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 Fraserburgh.

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.

**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.

**Will my engine be damaged?**
Not if it has not been started. The wrong fuel sitting in the tank touches nothing that a drain cannot clear. Damage starts once it circulates.

**Can I drive to a garage with wrong fuel engine damage?**
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 you cover all of Fraserburgh?**
Yes — forecourts, roadsides, homes and workplaces across Fraserburgh and the surrounding area.

**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.
