# AdBlue in the Diesel Tank in Tynan: What Now?

Has your engine run since the AdBlue was put in? This one question settles nearly everything else from here.

Out in Madden or here around Tynan, an unrun engine must remain that way.

Keep nothing on, call 0333 366 0103, and count on a thorough flush after a drain, carried out just where your car sits in Tynan.

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

Stage one stays unchanged, even though the job grows.

Anywhere in County Armagh it took place, one of the situations below matches yours.

## Tynan forecourt: AdBlue in a diesel at the pump

You are at the petrol pump, the nozzle or the bottle still in your hand, and you have just noticed the cap you opened was the wrong one.

It might be the the nearest petrol station, or the another forecourt nearby, or a different station around Tynan.

Meaning? Spotting it here is the best it gets.

No pump has pulled it through, so the AdBlue stays only inside your tank.

What to do: do not get back in and crank it to clear the petrol pump.

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

If it can't be shifted, it can be cleared at the petrol pump: the equipment is explosion-proof and safe on a busy forecourt.

## Tynan, at home: AdBlue in your diesel tank

The warning light had been on for days.

Picked up a bottle, tipped it in at home, recycled the empty — and only then checked the cap a second time, after the fact.

Right off Heugh Road is no different from any other place.

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

AdBlue doesn't mix with diesel; it sinks to the bottom of the tank and waits there. Overnight doesn't change that.

Keep your keys in the house tonight — otherwise a person might drive it away first thing — then call us.

Caledon or Tynan: whichever your driveway is, that is where it gets emptied.

The pumps are quiet enough to use outside a house at night.

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

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

Dunskey Street, perhaps, or the route towards Armagh — a trip of under 10 miles.

The point: your system has pulled AdBlue in already.

It's been through the fuel filter and the fuel lines and, the further you went, into the high-pressure pump and the fuel injectors.

It goes deeper with each extra mile covered and each restart.

Your move: stop anywhere safe, then turn your engine off.

Tynan sits over 50 miles from the M77; on it, come off at the next junction rather than pressing on to the services.

Starting it again to check gets nothing — AdBlue never clears itself.

Phone, and say what distance your vehicle went.

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

You have just driven this car a week.

Unknown to you, the AdBlue and diesel fillers sit side by side here — not like your own car, which has no AdBlue or keeps it in another spot.

Wherever you happen to be across County Armagh, any motorist can slip up.

Put simply: one extra stage on top of the situations above, and those depend on whether it's run.

The owner frequently has to approve any work, under plenty of hire and company agreements.

Do this: hire firm or fleet manager first, us second, since settling it beforehand cuts time.

Hanging on for an answer in the car park at the nearest station, or near the centre? Leave the engine off throughout.

## Not sure it was AdBlue in the diesel tank, Tynan?

At times, "I think so" is all you can truthfully say.

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

The gates of the local primary school in a hurry, say, or someone's drive out in Carrickaness.

Meaning? Spills around the inlet never reach your engine at all.

AdBlue inside the diesel tank does.

Firing up the vehicle will not tell you which, and if there is AdBlue in your tank it will draw it in.

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

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

## Each AdBlue drain in Tynan shares these steps

Whichever situation you are in, the job starts the same way.

Filling station, driveway, the pub in the village's car park or a street by a street just off the centre — our van reaches your car, and three answers come next: what liquid, which quantity, and if it has run.

On the phone, ahead of anything else, you are told the quote, and those replies decide the work too.

Draining the tank comes first, followed by a full flush — more vital with urea than after petrol, since crystals and corrosion won't go on their own, no matter how long you wait.

Then is the fuel filter — cleaned, or replaced where needed — followed by clean diesel, and a test of the car.

Most unrun vehicles are a half-hour job from the moment we arrive.

The final step is firing it up.

We confirm it runs properly on fresh diesel before we go.

The whole job is done where your car is, and when it is spotted quickly, permanent damage is very uncommon.

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

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

Our van empties it where it stands.

If you're somewhere hard to explain, close to the far end of the built-up part or close to a border, ring and ask rather than assuming.
