# AdBlue in the Diesel Tank in Savile Park: What Now?

One fact counts most once AdBlue is in a diesel tank, and that is if the engine has been started since.

Anywhere the vehicle stands — Pye Nest, Savile Park — never run a motor that hasn't been started yet.

Leave the motor and your ignition off and phone 0333 366 0103; it is usually a drain and a thorough flush, done where the car is around Savile Park.

Already run? Pull over when safe, then turn it off.

The job is bigger, but the first stage is the same.

Below: the cases our technicians meet, wherever around West Yorkshire. Pick the one that fits.

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

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

Whether Shell, Esso or anywhere else in Savile Park, the case is the same.

Meaning? Spotting it on the forecourt is the best it can be.

Just your tank has AdBlue; not one component past it has drawn it in.

What to do: don't get back in and crank it to clear the pump.

Get the staff to help rolling it into a bay, hold on to the receipt, then ring us right there.

Stuck beside the pump? Explosion-proof kit makes a busy forecourt safe, and so it can be drained in place.

## Savile Park, at home: AdBlue in the diesel tank

The warning light had been on for days.

Bought a bottle, poured it in outside the house, recycled the empty — and at that point checked the cap again, after the fact.

It happens on driveways just off Kensington Close as often as anywhere.

What it means: if you have not driven since, this is almost as good as the forecourt.

Diesel and AdBlue keep separate: the AdBlue drops to the floor of that tank and remains there, however long the night.

Next: the keys indoors, and so no one takes your car off at breakfast. After that, ring.

In Skircoat Green or right here in Savile Park, the drain is done at your drive.

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

## AdBlue in a diesel and already driving around Savile Park?

Topped up, pulled away, and before long the engine was turning unevenly, blowing smoke, losing power, or lighting up the dash.

Perhaps it was on Edgemoor Close, possibly on the way out towards Bradford, under 10 miles away.

Meaning? Your fuel pump has taken the AdBlue in.

Distance sets how far it goes: filter and pipework first, then the high-pressure pump and every injector.

More driving, more starts: further it goes.

Do this: pull up anywhere safe, then switch the motor off.

Exit at the next junction — not the services further along — if you are on the M62, under 3 miles from Savile Park.

Restarting it to test achieves nothing — AdBlue never clears on its own.

About what distance did it go? Say so as you call.

## A hire or company car with AdBlue in the wrong tank?

It's a motor you have had for a week.

The AdBlue filler is right next to the diesel filler, which you did not know, because your own motor either has no AdBlue or keeps it somewhere else.

It can happen to anyone, anywhere around West Yorkshire.

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

Work on your vehicle frequently requires the owner's go-ahead under hire or fleet agreements.

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

If you're stuck in the car park outside Halifax, or by The Jungle Experience, whilst you wait for an answer, leave the vehicle off.

## Savile Park: unsure if it was AdBlue in the diesel tank?

"I think so" is sometimes as honest answer there is.

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

Maybe it happened in a hurry at the school gates at Holy Trinity Primary School, A Church of England Academy, or on a friend's drive in Pickwood Scar.

What it means: a little spilled around the filler does no damage to your motor.

A diesel tank with AdBlue in it is a different story.

Any AdBlue in that tank would be sucked in by firing up the car, and the start wouldn't settle which it is in any case.

Your move: behave as though it got in, and never start the engine.

Ring us and describe what you saw; we would rather check a tank that turns out free of AdBlue than drain one that has already been run.

## What each AdBlue drain around Savile Park has in common

The job opens identically, whichever your case.

Anywhere the vehicle is — The Big 6's car park, a street beside Old Crossleyans RUFC, a drive, a filling station — the van arrives and we ask about the fluid, the quantity, plus if the engine has been run.

Answers shape the work; the price follows on the call whilst nobody has left yet.

A thorough flush comes after this drain. With petrol it's standard; with AdBlue it is crucial, since deposits build up and certain metals are attacked, and neither rinses out unaided.

Next comes the filter — cleaned, or replaced where necessary — then fresh diesel, and a test of the vehicle.

The majority of unrun cars are a half-hour visit from the moment our engineers arrive.

Last, our technicians start it.

With clean diesel in, it runs while we make sure it's running smoothly, and then we head off.

Our technicians do the whole job where your car is, and long-term damage is very unusual if it has been spotted soon.

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

Plenty of insurance policies include misfuelling, and so look at yours while the van travels.
