# Kylepark: AdBlue in the Diesel Tank? Find Your Situation

One fact matters above all once AdBlue is in a diesel tank, and it is if the engine has been started since.

If it hasn't, keep it that way, whether the car is in Kylepark itself or out in Tannochside.

Leave your engine and your ignition off and ring 0333 366 0103; it's generally a drain and a thorough flush, done where the vehicle is in Kylepark.

If it has run, stop as soon as it is safe and switch off.

It is a bigger job, though stage one doesn't change.

Wherever around South Lanarkshire it happened, one of the situations below fits yours.

## On a Kylepark forecourt with AdBlue in a diesel

The cap you unscrewed was the wrong one — and you just spot it while you're stood at the pump, bottle or nozzle in your hand.

Perhaps you are at the Gulf, maybe at the BP, maybe somewhere else in Kylepark.

Put simply: no better place to be to spot it.

The AdBlue is in that tank and nowhere else. Nothing has sucked it in.

Do this: stay out of the driver's seat, even if the pump needs clearing.

Three things: a push into a space with the attendants helping, the receipt saved, and a call to us from where you stand.

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

## AdBlue in the diesel tank at home in Kylepark

For days the dash had been warning you.

A bottle from the shop, emptied in on the driveway — and it was just by the bin that the cap caught your eye.

It takes place on driveways just off Kylepark Crescent as regularly as anywhere.

Put simply: if your vehicle hasn't been driven since, it is almost equal to finding out at the forecourt.

On the floor of that tank is where AdBlue waits, since it will not blend with diesel — and a night passing changes no difference.

Next: stop any early drive by keeping your keys in the house, then ring us.

We drain the vehicle on your drive, whether that is around Kylepark or out in Calderbraes.

Our pumping kit works quiet enough not to disturb the neighbours at night.

## On the road in Kylepark with AdBlue in a diesel

You filled up, set off, and a mile or two later the engine began to run unevenly, smoke, lose power or light up the dashboard.

Anywhere along Priory Drive or heading towards Glasgow — under 10 miles away.

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

Through the fuel filter, through the pipework, and — the further the mileage — on into the injection pump and each injector.

Each mile and each restart takes it further.

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

On the M74, under a mile from Kylepark, that means the next junction, not the services further on.

Do not restart the vehicle to see if it has cleared; it will not have.

Roughly how far had it go? Say so as you call.

## AdBlue in the wrong tank: hire, lease and company motors

It is a vehicle you have had for a week.

The AdBlue filler is right beside the diesel filler, 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 South Lanarkshire.

The point: exactly as above, split by if it ran, only with one added step.

Work on the vehicle frequently needs the owner's go-ahead under hire or fleet terms.

Sorting it before we turn up is faster, so phone the rental company or your fleet manager, and then us.

Hanging on for a reply in the car park outside Uddingston, or near Uddingston Sports Centre? Leave the car off throughout.

## Unsure about AdBlue in your diesel tank around Kylepark?

Truthfully, the best answer may be that you think so.

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

A rushed stop by the gates of the local primary school, or a call to a friend in Newton: both fits.

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

In the diesel tank, however, AdBlue harms it.

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

Assume it went in, and don't start your engine.

Describe what you noticed on the phone. A clean tank looked at counts as a happier result than an already-run one drained.

## The common ground in each Kylepark AdBlue drain

Each case has the same opening to the work.

Filling station, driveway, Angels's car park or a road by Clydeway Golf Range — the van comes to your vehicle, and three questions come next: what liquid, what amount, and if it has run.

Those replies settle the work, and you hear the price by phone, before anyone heads out.

A thorough flush comes after this drain. With petrol it's routine; with AdBlue it's essential, because deposits build up and some metals corrode, and neither rinses out unaided.

Finally are your filter, cleaned or renewed as needed; clean diesel; and a check of the car.

Not started? In that case about half an hour once we are there is most jobs.

Our technicians fire it up at the end.

Our technicians confirm it runs correctly on new diesel before leaving.

When it's spotted early, the car very seldom has lasting damage, and the entire job takes place where it is.

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

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