Wrong Fuel in Car Capstone - Petrol in Diesel Car Capstone
A lady with her little ones in her diesel Capstone had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the petrol station. She called us sobbing and really upset as she had never wrong fueled and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that the car would be ok and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she saw that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the kids on board."

Contamination with AdBlue or Water
There are other causes of engine problems besides filling your vehicle with the wrong fuel. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause similar symptoms of lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke and stalling. Besides, it can make the fuel filters unusable and require replacement.
You can also notice similar signs if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is used to purify the emissions of your engine should only be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If this is added into the fuel tank by somebody who knows nothing of AdBlue, the result would be bad for the engine.
