Questions worth asking before you book a drain in Weybridge
Most bad experiences with a fuel drain come from not asking these up front. Ask them all.
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?
- Can you work on the forecourt, or does the car need to be moved?
- Will you dispose of the contaminated fuel, and can I have a note of it?
- Is the vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, and does that change the price?
- Is there an extra charge at night or at the weekend?
What to do right now
- 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.

Answers
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 Weybridge.
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 Weybridge?
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.

Usually the same day and often within a couple of hours. The operator gives you an arrival window on 01295 380724 before you agree.
Do you cover all of Weybridge?

Do I need to stay with the car?
