Signs of the Problem and its Causes

Now that you have personally experienced what it's like to have the wrong fuel in your vehicle, you may be be careful next time. And to completely understand signs of the problem here's a list for future reference:

• The engine won't run and it's spluttering
• If you notice the exhaust, you will notice lots of smoke coming out
• Engine appears powerless now matter how hard you push the accelerator
• The vehicle will stop on its own

We learn from experiences and mistakes so we shouldn't get too down so much once we face such situations since they make us more careful and equip us with the appropriate mentality and skills on how to manage such problems in future.

But there are means in which you can avoid being in the same situation once more and they include not being in a rush, concentrating when filling up, and avoiding being in a strange vehicle which you are not used to traveling in.

As stated earlier, there are other issues that could be the cause of your vehicle problems aside from wrong fuel. Water contamination is one of them, which causes similar poor car performance, generally ending in your car breaking down. This implies that if you experience any of the previously mentioned signs, they could also be a result of either of the two.

Diesel engines (modern ones) these days make use of AdBlue to reduce nitrous pollutants in the exhaust fumes. Having the right ratio of AdBlue to fuel is critical, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If you get somebody to directly add this to your tank without knowing the proper procedure, it's more likely to cause trouble to your engine. Again, the symptoms are very like those stated above, and we can put things right for you. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can almost certainly help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.

Diesel or petrol being very flammable should be handled by a professional with the appropriate equipment. Fuel for instance, can ignite effortlessly, turning a small problem into a tragic one. You can deal with the issue yourself or employ a friend to do it so as to save money, but you are advised to hire a professional so as to avoid any further fuel related issue.

Besides, our technicians are situated throughout the place, and they have all the skill sets and knowledge, and will solve the issue for you quickly and at a reasonable price.
