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

One fact counts most when AdBlue is in a diesel tank, and that is whether the engine has run since.

Anywhere your car is — Chequerfield, Willow Park — don't start a motor that hasn't run yet.

Keep nothing on, ring 0333 366 0103, then expect a thorough flush plus a drain, done just where the vehicle sits in Willow Park.

Stop the minute you safely can then switch off, if it has been run.

A bigger job, yes, yet the identical first move.

Find the situation below that matches yours, wherever in West Yorkshire it happened.

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

Picture it: stood by the petrol pump, gripping the bottle, you spot the filler you took off wasn't the correct one.

Somewhere around Willow Park, then — Shell, Murco, or anywhere else close by.

The point: of every spot to find out, this is the best.

The AdBlue is in your tank and nowhere else. Nothing has drawn it in.

Next: resist the temptation to start it only to free up the pump.

Phone us from the forecourt once the vehicle sits in a bay — the staff will lend a hand to roll it — then save the bottle.

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

## At home around Willow Park with AdBlue in the diesel tank

On the dash, a reminder had been lit all week.

A bottle bought at the garage, emptied in at the driveway — and it's just at the recycling that the cap caught your eye.

It occurs on drives just off Chequerfield Lane as often as anywhere.

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

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

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

Out in Grove Town or here around Willow Park, the drain happens on your driveway.

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

## Set off with AdBlue in a diesel in Willow Park?

A short way after topping up, the motor began misbehaving: roughness, smoke, lost power, lights on the dash.

Willow Park, say, or the way to Wakefield — a run of under 10 miles.

Meaning? The fuel pump has taken the AdBlue in.

Distance decides how deep it goes: filter and lines first, then the injection pump and each injector.

Each restart, like every mile, carries it deeper.

Pull in somewhere safe — that is the next job — then turn it off.

On the A1(M), under a mile from Willow Park, that means the next junction, not the services further on.

No test starts: clearing is not something AdBlue does.

Phone us and say how far you went.

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

You have just driven the vehicle a week.

Unknown to you, the AdBlue and diesel fillers sit next to each other here — unlike your own car, which has none or keeps it elsewhere.

It can happen to anyone, anywhere in West Yorkshire.

Meaning? Whichever case above applies too — run or not — plus one further stage.

The owner frequently needs to sign off any work, under many rental and fleet agreements.

Next: phone the hire company or your fleet manager first, then us — sorting it before we arrive is faster.

Stranded by Battle of Chequer Field or at Pontefract Baghill until someone answers, the car stays switched off the whole time.

## Not sure it was AdBlue in your diesel tank, Willow Park?

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

Too light, the bottle; a trace of ammonia round the filler; no clear recollection of the cap. Sound familiar?

Perhaps it happened in a hurry at the school gates at De Lacy Primary School, or on a friend's drive in Pontefract.

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

AdBlue inside your diesel tank does.

Any AdBlue in the tank will be pulled in by firing up the car, and the start would not settle which it is in any case.

What to do: treat it as if it went in. Do not crank it.

Checking a tank that proves free of AdBlue beats draining one once it's been run — so ring then tell us what you saw.

## Each AdBlue drain in Willow Park shares these steps

The job opens identically, whichever your situation.

Forecourt, drive, Willow Park Social Club's car park or a street by St Mary's Community Centre — the van comes to the car, and three questions follow: which liquid, which amount, and whether it has run.

The price is given over the phone, before a van leaves, and the answers set the job.

Emptying the tank comes next, then a careful flush — more important after urea than with petrol, since crystals and corrosion won't clear by themselves, however long you wait.

Clean diesel is put in once your filter is cleaned or replaced, and your car is finally tested.

Never started? Then roughly half an hour on site is most jobs.

Last, our engineers fire it up.

Our check that it runs properly on new diesel comes before our technicians go.

We do the entire job where the vehicle is, and permanent damage is very rare if it has been spotted early.

Paying comes on the day, never in advance. For your insurer, there is a VAT invoice and a report from the engineer.

Worth knowing: lots of insurers include misfuelling cover, so a check of your policy while you wait is worthwhile.
