What a local fuel drainer does in Cork
The job of a drainer in Cork is simple and specific: remove the wrong fuel from the tank before it damages the pump and injectors, flush what it touched, and refill. It is done at the roadside, forecourt or driveway, usually the same day.
If you have put the wrong fuel in at a pump in Cork, resist the urge to move the car. A drain from a static, unrun tank is straightforward; once the engine has drawn the fuel through, the fix involves far more of the system. Engine off is the whole game.

What to do right now
- Do not turn the key or start the engine — that is what turns a drain into a repair.
- Do not move the vehicle. 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.

Common questions
Do you cover Cork yourselves?
No. Fuel Fixer Scotland operates in Scotland. For Cork in Cork we connect you with a local wrong-fuel drainer rather than sending a van across the Irish Sea. Call 01295 380724 and we will make that connection.
What should I do right now in Cork?
Exactly what you would do anywhere: do not start the engine, do not move the vehicle, and call for a drain. Starting it is what turns a straightforward drain into a fuel-system repair, and that is true in every country.
What will it cost in Ireland?
The local drainer sets their own price, so we will not quote you a figure we do not control. Ask the attending drainer to confirm the cost before they travel.
Who regulates waste fuel in Ireland?
The Environmental Protection Agency and the relevant local authority, not SEPA, which covers Scotland only. The drainer who attends is responsible for their own waste documentation.
Is wrong fuel any different in Ireland?
Mechanically, no. The same fluid in the same tank does the same thing to the same components. Only the response arrangement and the waste paperwork differ.
Why does a Scottish company have a page for Cork?
Because people in Cork search for this and end up on Scottish and UK sites anyway. We would rather tell you plainly what we can and cannot do than take the call and disappoint you.
