Fuel drain car
Fuel drain car? A full tank extraction and line flush, carried out wherever the vehicle is standing. Call 01293 248666 — a mobile technician comes to the vehicle anywhere across CA15 and the Solway coast. Call-out £89 to £199, drain £199 to £1,999.
The van is the workshop
Everything a drain needs — extraction pump, sealed waste container, fresh fuel, priming kit — travels in the vehicle. That is why Wrong Fuel Maryport can cover all of CA15 and the Solway coast without premises anywhere in it, and why the job usually ends where it started rather than at the end of a tow rope. 01293 248666, any hour.

Fuel drain car: what to do
Extract, flush, refill, prime.
What actually happens inside the fuel system
Fuel leaves the tank through the lift pump, passes the filter, reaches the high-pressure pump and then the injectors. Petrol in a diesel system strips the lubrication that high-pressure pump depends on, and metal shed by the pump travels downstream into the injectors. That sequence is the whole story: cost depends on whether the engine ran, and for how long, not on how many litres went in.
Step by step
- Stop. Do not turn the key Whatever else happens, this is the decision that matters. Contamination only travels under power.
- Resist the urge to move it The instinct is to get out of the way. Unless you are somewhere dangerous, staying put is the cheaper instinct to follow.
- Safety before diagnosis If you are on a live carriageway, get out and get behind the barrier, and let the police or National Highways deal with the lane first.
- Phone 01293 248666 You will be asked four questions and given a price and an arrival window. Both are honest rather than flattering.
- On-site extraction The tank is emptied, the feed lines are flushed, fresh fuel goes in and the system is primed and run.
- Done, and the waste leaves with us Under a waste transfer note. It is not tipped and it is not sold back to you.

Questions we get asked
How much does it cost in Maryport?
Call-out £89 to £199, drain £199 to £1,999. The full price for your vehicle is confirmed on the phone before a technician sets off, so there is no surprise when we arrive.
What happens to the old fuel?
It leaves with us as controlled waste under a waste transfer note. It is not tipped, and it is not resold to you.
Do you cover all of CA15 and the Solway coast?
Yes, from one rota — so being at one edge of the area rather than the other changes the arrival window, not the price.
How long will I be waiting?
Arrival depends where you are across CA15 and the Solway coast and what is already running. You get a realistic window on the call rather than an optimistic one.
