Diesel in the AdBlue tank in Ballaghaderreen — mobile drain
If you have diesel in the adblue tank in Ballaghaderreen, County Roscommon, Ireland, do not start the engine and call 01295 380724. We cover Ireland through local fuel drainers rather than our own vans, and we will connect you to one covering Ballaghaderreen with the vehicle and fuel details already passed on. Diesel in the AdBlue tank contaminates the urea and can damage the SCR injector and pump. It must come out before the engine runs. Price and arrival time are set and confirmed by the local operator before they travel.
Whether the engine was started is what decides the outcome, in Ireland exactly as in the UK.
How Ireland works
Misfuel Doctor operates its own mobile technicians across the UK. In Ireland we do not run our own vans — we work with local fuel drainers and connect you to one covering Ballaghaderreen. Call 01295 380724 and we will pass you straight to a drainer in your area with the details of the vehicle and the fuels involved, so you are not repeating the story twice. Pricing and attendance times are set by the local operator, not by us, so ask them to confirm both before they travel.

Common questions
Can I drive with diesel in the adblue tank?
No. Starting or driving pumps it through the system and can turn a straightforward drain into an expensive repair. Leave the vehicle where it is and call 01295 380724.
How long does the drain take?
About 45 to 90 minutes on site once the technician arrives. Vehicles that were started or driven take longer, because the lines and filter need flushing as well as the tank.
How much does it cost in Ballaghaderreen?
In Ireland the local drainer we connect you to sets the price and confirms it on the phone before travelling.
Will it have damaged the engine?
Only if it has been run through the system. Caught before starting, it sits in the tank and a drain removes it cleanly.
Does insurance cover it?
Often not. Most car insurance policies exclude misfuelling as standard, though some breakdown policies and optional add-ons include it. Check your own wording.
Do you cover Ballaghaderreen?
Yes. Mobile technicians attend forecourts, roadsides, homes and workplaces across Ballaghaderreen, 24 hours a day.
