# What Now? AdBlue in the Diesel Tank in Rocksavage

Has your motor turned over since the AdBlue got in? That one question decides almost everything else from here.

Out in Weston Point or here in Rocksavage, an unstarted engine must stay unrun.

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

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

The job is bigger, yet the first step is the same.

Anywhere around Cheshire it took place, one of the cases below fits yours.

## On a Rocksavage forecourt with AdBlue in a diesel

Just at this point, nozzle yet in your hand, it dawns on you that the cap you took off was the wrong one, there at the petrol pump.

Whether North West Fuels, Shell or somewhere else around Rocksavage, the case is identical.

In short: there is no better spot exists to spot it.

Still in that tank, and no fuel drawn onwards: that is where the AdBlue sits.

Do this: stay out of the car, even if the pump wants clearing.

Have the staff to help pushing it into a bay, hold on to the bottle, then ring us from there.

Draining it right at the petrol pump is fine if it cannot be shifted, since the equipment is explosion-proof.

## AdBlue in the diesel tank on a Rocksavage drive?

Days had passed with the warning light on.

A bottle from the garage, emptied in on the driveway — and it's only by the recycling that the cap caught your eye.

Just off Cow Hey Lane is no less likely from anywhere.

Put simply: if your car hasn't moved since, it is almost as good as spotting it at the forecourt.

Diesel and AdBlue stay apart: the AdBlue settles to the base of that tank and stays there, no matter how long it waits.

Next: stop any early-morning drive by keeping your keys indoors, then ring us.

Our engineers drain it on your driveway, whether that is in Rocksavage or out in Weston.

Even at night, the pumps are quiet enough for a residential street.

## Set off with AdBlue in a diesel in Rocksavage?

A short way beyond topping up, the motor began playing up: roughness, smoke, less power, lights on the dash.

Possibly it was on Weston Point Expressway, maybe on the way out towards Chester, under 15 miles away.

The upshot: your system has drawn AdBlue through already.

The high-pressure pump and every injector get it as well on a longer trip, after your filter and lines have had it.

More miles, more starts: further it goes.

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

On the M56, under 3 miles from Rocksavage, that means the next exit, not the services further on.

It won't have cleared, and so there is no sense restarting to find out.

Phone us and say how far you drove.

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

You've just had the vehicle a week.

On your own car, AdBlue is absent or somewhere else. On this one, the inlet is just next to your diesel inlet — a surprise to you.

Wherever you are in Cheshire, every driver could slip up.

Put simply: one extra stage on top of the cases above, which depend on if it has run.

Work on the vehicle often needs the owner's approval under rental or company terms.

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

If you're stuck in the car park outside Runcorn, or by St John's, whilst you wait for an answer, leave the vehicle off.

## AdBlue in the diesel tank? Not sure, around Rocksavage

"I think so" is sometimes the most honest as it gets.

Lighter, the bottle; a trace of ammonia round the filler; a hazy recollection of which cap. Sound familiar?

A rushed top-up by the gates of Weston Primary School, or a call to a friend in Clifton: either fits.

The point: your engine isn't harmed by some AdBlue splashed around the filler.

A diesel tank with AdBlue inside is a different matter.

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

Your move: act as though it got in, and never start your engine.

Tell us what you noticed on the phone. A clear tank looked at counts as a better result than a run one drained.

## Rocksavage: what every AdBlue drain has in common

Each case has the same start to the job.

Three things are asked once our engineers arrive — at a filling station, a drive, a street beside Weston Cross or the car park outside The Royal Oak: the liquid, the amount, and if it has run.

Those answers settle the work, and you get the quote on the phone, before anybody sets off.

Draining that tank comes first, followed by a careful flush — more vital after urea than with petrol, because crystals and corrosion will not clear on their own, however long you wait.

Last are your filter, flushed or renewed if necessary; clean diesel; and a check of your car.

Where the motor has not been started, expect roughly half an hour on site, in most cases.

We fire it up last.

Before we head off, it is tested to be sure it runs correctly on fresh diesel.

The entire job is done where the car is, and if it is caught soon, lasting damage is very unusual.

For your insurer: an engineer's report and the VAT invoice. For you: payment on the day, nothing in advance.

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