Putting the incorrect fuel in your vehicle isn’t the only reason for engine problems. Such symptoms as insufficient power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. Water is also likely to cause permanent damage to fuel filters.
A diesel-powered car may also show such signs when someone puts AdBlue directly into the vehicle’s fuel tank. The correct way to add it is via a separate tank and automatic dosing system built into the car.

Wrong Fuel in Car Shuttlesfield - Petrol in Diesel Car Shuttlesfield
This was what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly 2am and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful until now, and Mark and I were loafing around perusing some old newspapers. That was an unusual calm moment. Actually it was in fact that calm that when the telephone ultimately rang I leaped! The motorist on the phone explained: "I only just finished my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel Shuttlesfield in error". We told him to tell us just where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, ending up less than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the motor. He thanked us for arriving so promptly. While we were going back to the depot we noticed two women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a puncture. Accordingly we got out to help them change it, much to their elation.

It was just before six pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were relaxing commenting on the footy rankings, waiting around for the seventh job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Shuttlesfield lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was very distressed apparently, crying "I can't believe I've wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the car into a secure position and, because it was only a few miles away from the office, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain well done in my books!

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
