# What Now? AdBlue in the Diesel Tank in Fallings Park

What to do about AdBlue in a diesel tank comes down to one thing more than any other: whether your motor has been run since it went in.

Anywhere your car stands — New Cross, Fallings Park — never start a motor that hasn't run yet.

Keep nothing on, call 0333 366 0103, and count on a thorough flush plus a drain, done right where your car sits around Fallings Park.

Already started? Stop once you safely can, then switch it off.

It is a larger job, yet step one does not change.

Match your case to one of the ones below, anywhere in West Midlands you are.

## Fallings Park forecourt: AdBlue in a diesel at the pump

Only at this point, nozzle still in your hand, you realise that the cap you took off was the wrong one, there at the petrol pump.

Whether Texaco, another forecourt nearby or somewhere else around Fallings Park, the case is the same.

The upshot: of all places to find out, the forecourt is the best.

Only the tank has AdBlue; no part beyond it has taken it in.

Next: resist the urge to fire it up just to move away from the pump.

Have the attendants to help pushing it to a space, save the receipt, then phone us right there.

Emptying it right at the pump is possible when it can't be moved, because the equipment is explosion-proof.

## Fallings Park, at home: AdBlue in your diesel tank

Days had gone by with the warning light on.

A bottle bought at the garage, emptied in at the drive — and it's just at the bin that the cap caught a second look.

It occurs on driveways just off Bank Street as often as anywhere.

Meaning? Provided your car has not moved since, it is second to the forecourt case.

As it is unable to mix, AdBlue drops to the base in the tank and stays. One night standing alters none of that.

Keep the keys in the house overnight — otherwise someone may take it away first thing — then call us.

Our technicians drain the vehicle on your driveway, whether that's in Fallings Park or out in Park Village.

Even at night, our pumps stay quiet enough for a driveway.

## Fallings Park: set off with AdBlue in a diesel?

A mile or two beyond filling up, your engine started misbehaving: rough running, smoke, lost power, warnings on the dash.

It might have been driving to Wolverhampton, under 3 miles away, or just along Wood Street.

The point: your system has drawn AdBlue through by now.

The high-pressure pump and every injector see it too on a longer trip, once the fuel filter and pipework have it.

Each mile and each restart takes it further.

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

Fallings Park sits under 3 miles from the M54; there, come off at the next junction instead of pushing on to the services.

It will not have cleared, so there is no point starting it again to check.

About how far had it gone? Say so when you phone.

## Hire, lease or company car with AdBlue in the wrong tank

You have had the vehicle barely a week.

Unbeknown to you, the AdBlue and diesel fillers are side by side here — unlike your own car, which has none or keeps it elsewhere.

Across West Midlands, nobody is safe from it.

What it means: the same as the situations above, depending on whether it's run, with one more stage.

Plenty of rental and fleet agreements need the owner's approval for work.

What to do: call the hire firm or your fleet manager first, then us. That is faster settled before we turn up than after.

If you're stranded in the car park outside Wolverhampton, or by Holy Trinity Heath Town, whilst you wait for an answer, leave the car off.

## Unsure about AdBlue in your diesel tank in Fallings Park?

Now and then, "I think so" is all you can honestly say.

The bottle is lighter than it should be, there's a faint smell of ammonia around your filler, and you can't remember which cap you took off.

It might have been on a friend's drive in Heath Town, or rushing outside Trinity CofE Primary Academy on the school run.

Meaning? Drips outside the inlet never touch your engine at all.

The diesel tank with AdBlue inside is a different story.

Any AdBlue in your tank would be pulled in by turning on the vehicle, and the start wouldn't settle which it is in any case.

Next: assume it got in, then leave the motor off.

Describe what you saw on your phone. A clean tank looked at counts as a happier result than a run one drained.

## What every AdBlue drain around Fallings Park has in common

Whichever scenario you are in, this job starts the same way.

Three questions are asked once we reach the car — at a forecourt, a driveway, a street beside Wimborne Road Methodist Church or the car park at Golden Lion: the fluid, the quantity, and whether the motor has been started.

The price is given on the call, ahead of anyone setting off, and those replies shape the work.

Draining the tank comes next, followed by a careful flush — more vital with urea than with petrol, because crystals and corrosion will not go by themselves, however long you wait.

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

The majority of unstarted vehicles are a half-hour visit after the moment we get there.

Firing it up comes last.

Before our engineers leave, it's checked to be sure it runs properly on new diesel.

We do the entire job where your car is, and lasting damage is very rare when it has been noticed quickly.

For your insurer: an engineer's report and the VAT invoice. For you: payment on the day, no money in advance.

Plenty of policies cover misfuelling, so check yours while the van travels.
