- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?

- Will you check the filter and pump if the engine ran?
- How long until you reach me in Halewood Liverpool?
- How much more if the engine has already been started?

- Leave the ignition alone — on many cars even unlocking it powers the fuel pump.
- Push the car clear of the pump if needed, with someone steering and the engine off.
- Call 01295 380724 and give the fuel, the amount and your exact location.
- Ask for the whole price, not just the call-out, and agree it.
- The drainer drains the tank into a sealed container and flushes the lines.
- Fresh fuel goes in, the engine is started and the waste fuel leaves with the drainer.

**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 Halewood Liverpool.

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 I pay by card?**
Yes. Card payment is taken on site once the job is done.

**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.

**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.

**Does insurance cover wrong fuel engine damage?**
Many policies exclude misfuelling. Some breakdown cover and optional add-ons include it. Check your policy wording before assuming either way.

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

**Do you work at night in Halewood Liverpool?**
Yes. Drainers work 24 hours a day, including weekends and bank holidays.
