Find Your Situation All of it hinges on one fact: whether your motor has started since the AdBlue went in — far more than anything else. If it hasn't, keep it that way, whether the vehicle is in Ackworth Moor Top itself or out in Charlestown Estate. Usually this is draining and properly purging it right there in Ackworth Moor Top — so leave your key and engine off then call 0333 366 0103. When the motor has run, pull in safely straight away, then switch the car off. It's a bigger job, yet step one doesn't change. Find the situation below that matches yours, wherever around West Yorkshire it happened. ## AdBlue in a diesel on a Ackworth Moor Top forecourt Just at this point, bottle still in your hand, it dawns on you that the cap you took off was the wrong one, right at the petrol pump. It could be the Esso, or the BP, or a different station around Ackworth Moor Top. Put simply: no better spot exists to discover it. Still inside the tank, with nothing pulled onwards: that is where the AdBlue sits. Clearing the petrol pump is no reason to run it — so do not get back in. Ring us from the forecourt after your vehicle is in a bay — the staff will lend a hand to roll it — then save the bottle. Stuck by the petrol pump? Our explosion-proof equipment keeps a live forecourt safe, and so it can be drained where it is. ## At home in Ackworth Moor Top with AdBlue in your diesel tank On the dash, a reminder had shown all week. A bottle bought at the garage, emptied in on the driveway — and it's just by the recycling that the cap got a second look. Driveways close to Wakefield Road see it as much as any other street. Meaning? Provided your car hasn't been driven since, it's close to the pump case. AdBlue doesn't mix with diesel; it sinks to the bottom of that tank and waits there. Overnight doesn't change that. What to do: leave the keys inside the house so no one moves the vehicle in the morning. Then ring. Rhyddings or Ackworth Moor Top: wherever your drive is, that is where it gets drained. The pumps are quiet enough to use outside a house after dark. ## AdBlue in a diesel and already driving in Ackworth Moor Top? A short way beyond filling up, the motor started playing up: rough running, smoke, less power, warnings on the dash. Moor Top Avenue, perhaps, or the way to Wakefield — a trip of under 10 miles. Meaning? Your fuel pump has sucked the AdBlue up. It has been through the fuel filter and the fuel lines and, the further you went, into the high-pressure fuel pump and the fuel injectors. Each mile and each restart takes it further. What to do: pull over where it's safe and switch off. On the A1(M), under 5 miles from Ackworth Moor Top, that means the next junction, not the services further on. No trial starts: clearing isn't something AdBlue does. Call us and say how far you travelled. ## AdBlue in the wrong tank of a hire, lease or company car It is a car you have had for a week. The AdBlue filler sits right beside the diesel filler, which you didn't know, because your own motor either has no AdBlue or keeps it somewhere else. Any driver, wherever around West Yorkshire, could make the same. What it means: the same as the situations above, depending on whether it's run, with one more stage. Plenty of rental and company contracts need the owner's sign-off for repairs. Next: phone the hire company or the fleet manager first, and then us — settling it before our arrival is quicker. Hanging on for an answer in the car park outside Fitzwilliam, or near Ackworth Parish Council Community Centre? Keep your car off throughout. ## Unsure about AdBlue in the diesel tank around Ackworth Moor Top? At times, "I think so" is the most anyone can honestly say. Too light, that bottle; a hint of ammonia near the filler; no clear recollection of the cap. Sound familiar? It might have been on a friend's drive in Hessle, or rushing outside Outwood Primary Academy Bell Lane on the school run. Meaning? Spills around the inlet never reach the motor at all. AdBlue inside your diesel tank does. You can't tell which by turning the key, and doing so would pull in any AdBlue that is in your tank. Take it that it got in, and never start your key. Tell us what you noticed on your phone. A clean tank checked counts as a better outcome than a run one emptied. ## What each AdBlue drain in Ackworth Moor Top has in common Every situation has the same opening to the work. Three questions come when our engineers arrive — on a forecourt, a drive, a road beside All Saints or the car park at The Boot and Shoe: the liquid, the amount, and whether it has run. Replies set the work; the price comes by phone while no one has left yet. Draining that tank comes next, then a careful flush — more important after urea than with petrol, since crystals and corrosion will not clear by themselves, no matter how long you wait. The fuel filter is cleaned, or replaced where it needs to be; clean diesel goes in; and the vehicle is tested. Never started? In that case roughly half an hour on site is most jobs. Finally, our technicians start it. We make sure it runs properly on new diesel before we leave. Lasting damage is very uncommon if it's noticed soon, and the whole job is done where the vehicle is. Nothing is taken upfront, settlement is made on the day, and you get what your insurer wants: an engineer report and a VAT invoice. Plenty of insurance policies include misfuelling, and so check yours while the van travels. ## About Ackworth Moor Top Ackworth Moor Top is a village in West Yorkshire, situated inland at an elevation of 56 metres, approximately 7 miles from Wakefield.
