On a forecourt, apply the handbrake and tell the station staff. - Call 01295 380724 with your location, your vehicle and which fuels were mixed. You get the price before we set off. - A technician attends with a licensed drainage unit and makes the area safe. - The contaminated fuel is pumped out and the fuel lines are flushed through. - Clean fuel goes in, the vehicle is started and checked, and you drive away. The waste fuel leaves with us for compliant disposal. [Call 01295 380724 now](tel:+441295380724) ## Prices in Milford Haven Call-out is £89 to £199 and the drain itself is £199 to £1,999. The two are quoted separately, and your exact price is confirmed on the phone before a technician sets off. Remote upland and coastal jobs are quoted with travel included, so the figure you are given is the figure you pay. Your situation | What is involved | Typical cost | Time on site | Spotted it, engine never started | Drain the tank, flush the lines, refill with clean fuel | £199 | 45–90 mins | Engine started but not driven | Drain plus a flush of the lines and filter | Mid range | 1–2 hours | Driven a short distance | Drain, flush and a check of the pump and injectors | Higher | 1–3 hours | Driven until it lost power or cut out | Drain, flush and fuel-system diagnosis | Upper end | Assessed on site | AdBlue in the diesel tank | Full drain and flush of tank and fuel lines | Quoted per vehicle | 1–3 hours | [Call 01295 380724](tel:+441295380724) ## Where we attend around Milford Haven We work postcode district SA73 and everything in between, including the Milford Haven post town area of Pembrokeshire. The way in is usually the A40, A477 and A487, and the Milford Haven terminals, ferry ports and coast-path car parks are routine for us. It makes no difference whether the car is on a filling-station apron, a verge, a driveway or a yard. Quote your postcode on the call and the price and arrival window are fixed before anyone travels. ## How serious is it? There are two versions of this: the cheap one, where the tank is emptied and refilled, and the expensive one, where the fuel has already been pumped through the engine. The key decides which. ## What happens when we arrive A technician will ask how much went in and whether it has been run, because that sets how far through the system the flush has to go. After that it is extract, flush, refill and test, usually inside the hour and a half. ### Neighbouring places we cover [Pembroke Dock](/areas/pembroke-dock/)[Merlin's Bridge Haverfordwest](/areas/merlin-s-bridge-haverfordwest/)[Pembroke](/areas/pembroke/)[Haverfordwest](/areas/haverfordwest/)[Prendergast Haverfordwest](/areas/prendergast-haverfordwest/)[Narberth](/areas/narberth/)[Tenby](/areas/tenby/)[St Davids](/areas/st-davids/)[Fishguard](/areas/fishguard/)[Cardigan](/areas/cardigan/)[Abergwili Carmarthen](/areas/abergwili-carmarthen/)[Carmarthen](/areas/carmarthen/)[Johnstown Carmarthen](/areas/johnstown-carmarthen/)[Burry Port](/areas/burry-port/) ### Elsewhere in Pembrokeshire [Haverfordwest](/areas/haverfordwest/)[Pembroke](/areas/pembroke/)[Pembroke Dock](/areas/pembroke-dock/)[Tenby](/areas/tenby/)[Fishguard](/areas/fishguard/)[St Davids](/areas/st-davids/)[Narberth](/areas/narberth/)[Prendergast Haverfordwest](/areas/prendergast-haverfordwest/)[Merlin's Bridge Haverfordwest](/areas/merlin-s-bridge-haverfordwest/) ### Answers [What do I do if I misfuel on the M4?](/answers/what-do-i-do-if-i-misfuel-on-the-m4/)[What do I do if I misfuel on the A55?](/answers/what-do-i-do-if-i-misfuel-on-the-a55/)[Do you cover Anglesey for fuel drain?](/answers/do-you-cover-anglesey-for-fuel-drain/)[What is the phone number for a fuel drain in wales?](/answers/what-is-the-phone-number-for-a-fuel-drain-in-wales/)[How quickly can someone come out for wrong fuel?](/answers/how-quickly-can-someone-come-out-for-wrong-fuel/)[What do I do if I misfuel on the A470?](/answers/what-do-i-do-if-i-misfuel-on-the-a470/)[Is wrong fuel covered by the AA or RAC?](/answers/is-wrong-fuel-covered-by-the-aa-or-rac/)[Who do I call for wrong fuel in Cardiff?](/answers/who-do-i-call-for-wrong-fuel-in-cardiff/) ### Council areas [Isle of Anglesey](/coverage/isle-of-anglesey/)[Gwynedd](/coverage/gwynedd/)[Conwy](/coverage/conwy/)[Denbighshire](/coverage/denbighshire/)[Flintshire](/coverage/flintshire/)[Wrexham](/coverage/wrexham/)[Powys](/coverage/powys/)[Ceredigion](/coverage/ceredigion/)[Pembrokeshire](/coverage/pembrokeshire/)[Carmarthenshire](/coverage/carmarthenshire/)[Swansea](/coverage/swansea/)[Neath Port Talbot](/coverage/neath-port-talbot/)[Bridgend](/coverage/bridgend/)[Vale of Glamorgan](/coverage/vale-of-glamorgan/)[Cardiff](/coverage/cardiff/)[Rhondda Cynon Taf](/coverage/rhondda-cynon-taf/)[Merthyr Tydfil](/coverage/merthyr-tydfil/)[Caerphilly](/coverage/caerphilly/)[Blaenau Gwent](/coverage/blaenau-gwent/)[Torfaen](/coverage/torfaen/)[Monmouthshire](/coverage/monmouthshire/)[Newport](/coverage/newport/) ## What Welsh customers say Rated **4.8 out of 5** from **6,053** verified reviews on [Reviews.co.uk](https://www.reviews.co.uk/company-reviews/store/fuelfixer-co-uk).

Leave the vehicle where it is and call 01295 380724. **How long does the drain take in Milford Haven?** About 45 to 90 minutes on site once the technician arrives. Vehicles that were started or driven take longer, because the lines and filter need flushing as well as the tank. **How much does it cost in Milford Haven?** Most jobs fall between £199 and £1,999 depending on the vehicle, how much wrong fuel is in the tank and whether the engine was started. You get the price on the phone before we travel. **Will it have damaged the engine?** Only if it has been run through the system. Caught before starting, it sits in the tank and a drain removes it cleanly. **Does insurance cover it?** Often not. Most car insurance policies exclude misfuelling as standard, though some breakdown policies and optional add-ons include it. Check your own wording. **Do you cover rural and island Milford Haven?** Yes. Technicians attend forecourts, roadsides, homes, farms and workplaces across Wales, including the uplands and the islands. Remote jobs are quoted with travel included so the price does not move. ### Other sites in this network Fuel Fixer Wales is part of Stockbridge Capital Holdings › Fuel Fixer International › Fuel Fixer Ltd.
