Wrong Fuel in Car Cackleshaw - Petrol in Diesel Car Cackleshaw

I enjoyed a great afternoon golfing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I headed out to assist a new couple who were away. They'd pulled over after inserting diesel into their Cackleshaw, and the car was approximately half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their car and smiled as I listened to the gal chastising her spouse for turning out to be so silly. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this situation happens everyday and that it's really nothing to fret about, but he in spite of everything got an earful by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove off I waved hasta la vista and wondered what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

Signs of the Problem and its Causes

Your experience of having a tank fueled with the incorrect fuel may teach you see the signs of the problem. For complete reference for future use, here are some the signs:

• Your engine will splutter and not run efficiently
• If you see the exhaust, you will notice plenty of smoke coming out
• Your car won't have any power no matter how hard you press the accelerator
• The vehicle won't work anymore

The fact that you now are aware the signs of incorrect fuel in vehicle or have experienced it, it will help you notice the issue if it occurs again in future. You should avoid being in a rush, not concentrating when you are on autopilot, and being in a car you are borrowing or hiring so as to avoid having the same mistake.

Contamination of fuel by water also results in the above signs.

Presence of water in fuel is another thing which can make your vehicle behave in the manner mentioned above. Hence you also have to consider it. You should know that any fuel which is contaminated with water, regardless of whether your car uses diesel or petrol , will always fail the engine resulting in an untimely stop.

A lot of modern diesel engines use AdBlue, a system that reduces the pollution of the engine. Having the correct ratio of AdBlue to fuel is essential, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If someone directly added this to your tank not knowing the correct tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble since it is is incorrect to mix it with fuel. The symptoms you will see is just like what were mentioned above but don't worry we get it fixed.
