# AdBlue in the Diesel Tank in Eastborough, and What to Do Next

One thing counts most once AdBlue is in a diesel tank, and that is if your engine has run afterwards.

Anywhere your vehicle stands — Batley Carr, Eastborough — never start a motor that hasn't been started yet.

Phone 0333 366 0103 with your ignition and motor still off. Across Eastborough, such a case is generally drained and flushed where it stands.

When your engine has run, pull in somewhere safe first, then turn the car off.

It's a bigger job, though stage one does not change.

Find the scenario below that matches yours, wherever around West Yorkshire it happened.

## AdBlue in a diesel on a Eastborough forecourt

Picture it: standing by the petrol pump, gripping the nozzle, you spot the filler you opened was not the right one.

Maybe you are at the Sainsbury's, perhaps at the Asda, perhaps somewhere else around Eastborough.

What it means: this is the ideal place to find out.

Nothing has drawn it in, and so the AdBlue sits just in the tank.

Your move: stay out of the car, however much the queue wants clearing.

A few things: a push into a bay with the attendants helping, the receipt kept, and a call to us from where you stand.

Can't move the car by the petrol pump? Explosion-proof kit makes a live forecourt safe, and so we can drain it in place.

## AdBlue in your diesel tank on a Eastborough drive?

For days the dash had been nagging you.

A bottle bought at the shop, tipped in on the drive — and it's only at the recycling that the cap caught your eye.

It happens on driveways just off Crackenedge Lane as regularly as anywhere.

Meaning? As long as your car has not been driven since, it is second to the forecourt case.

Diesel and AdBlue keep apart: the AdBlue settles to the floor of that tank and remains put, no matter how long it waits.

Put your keys indoors tonight — or a person may take it off at breakfast — and phone us.

Our engineers drain the vehicle on your driveway, whether that is in Eastborough or out in Dewsbury.

The pumps are quiet enough to use outside a house after dark.

## Eastborough: drove off with AdBlue in a diesel?

A mile or two beyond topping up, your motor began misbehaving: roughness, smoke, lost power, warnings on your dash.

Maybe it was on Dewsbury Ring Road, maybe on the way out towards Wakefield, under 10 miles away.

What it means: the fuel system has drawn the AdBlue in.

Through the filter, through the pipework, and — the further the mileage — deeper into the high-pressure pump and each injector.

It goes further with every mile covered and every restart.

What to do: pull over where it is safe to do so and switch off.

Services farther on can wait: on the M62, under 3 miles out of Eastborough, take the first junction.

No trial starts: clearing itself isn't something AdBlue does.

Tell us hear the mileage driven as you ring.

## AdBlue in the wrong tank of a hire, lease or company car

You've only driven the vehicle a week.

The AdBlue filler sits right beside the diesel one, which you didn't know, since your own vehicle either has no AdBlue or keeps it somewhere else.

It can happen to anyone, anywhere in West Yorkshire.

What it means: the same as the scenarios above, depending on whether it has run, with one more stage.

Plenty of hire and company agreements want the owner to approve work on your car.

Do this: hire firm or fleet manager to begin with, us second, because settling it beforehand saves time.

Waiting for an answer at the car park at Dewsbury, or near Masjid Salahuddin? Keep your car off throughout.

## Eastborough: unsure if it was AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Now and then, "I think so" is the most you can truthfully say.

Too light, that bottle; a hint of ammonia near the filler; no clear memory of the cap. Sound familiar?

The gates of Eastborough Academy in a hurry, say, or someone's drive out in Daw Green.

What it means: a little spilled about your filler does no damage to the engine.

The diesel tank with AdBlue in it is another matter.

You can't tell which by turning the key, and doing so would pull in any AdBlue that is in the tank.

Next: act as though it got in, then keep your engine off.

Tell us what you noticed on your phone. A clear tank looked at counts as a better outcome than a run one emptied.

## Each AdBlue drain in Eastborough shares these stages

Every situation gets the same opening to the work.

Three things are asked when our engineers arrive — at a filling station, a drive, a street beside Dewsbury Market or the car park outside Dewsbury Central Station: the liquid, the amount, and if the motor has been started.

Those replies settle the work, and you hear the quote on the phone, before anyone sets off.

Emptying the tank comes next, followed by a full flush — more vital after urea than after petrol, because crystals and corrosion won't go by themselves, no matter how long you wait.

The filter is flushed, or replaced where it needs to be; clean diesel goes in; and the vehicle is tested.

If the engine has not run, the majority of jobs take about half an hour once we're there.

The last step is starting it.

Our engineers confirm it runs properly on clean diesel before leaving.

The entire job is done where the vehicle is, and if it is caught early, long-term damage is very rare.

You pay on the day, with nothing upfront, and get a VAT invoice and an engineer report for your insurer.

Plenty of insurance policies cover misfuelling, and so check yours as we head over.

The van empties it where it stands.
