Noting all of the above, I suppose you'll be cautious in your next stop at the petrol station to refill. You may come back to think what caused the wrong fuel problem in the first place.
- You are in a hurry and confused on what precisely to do
- You're in autopilot mode and not checking
- Car you are utilizing is borrowed, you are not familiar with it
Your fuel might also be contaminated with water
You should note that the contamination of fuel by water is another problem that can cause similar signs described above. You should be aware 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.
Incorrect usage of AdBlue can also cause your engine to sputter, stop or produce a lot of smoke. But we can help you solve the same problem. AdBlue is a substance that is added to a vehicle to help make the engine work cleaner and should only be added by professionals utilizing its specified filler neck and tank to prevent experiencing the above signs. If you are not aware of this, you can easily make a mistake resulting in a wrong filling of AdBlue and the above signs. You should thus remember that whether it is wrong fuel or adding AdBlue directly, we can help you hit back on the road.

Wrong Fuel in Car Old Lindley - Petrol in Diesel Car Old Lindley
What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Monday and we were on the way to assist an elder woman after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Old Lindley. I had been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up on a country road on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I turned up at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was working she told me, "Now I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel since I had only bought it a week ago right after my previous one, which I'd owned for about 25 years, eventually stopped working". I completed the job and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a precious lady!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Old Lindley - Fuel Rescue Old Lindley
I am not so enthusiastic about doing the job weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd only just departed the wife and kids after a fantastic dinner made for me by the missus, and I was on the way to assist a man after he had put the incorrect fuel in his Old Lindley. He was only nearby therefore it wouldn't be long before I got to him. Just as I drove up at the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Thank God! I had my concentration on other things and did not realise I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about harm simply by running it?" I determined that truth be told there should not be any kind of harm and that I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained right away. As expected I removed the fuel from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and thus another happy motorist had the ability to continue his journey without the difficulty. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and this helps make carrying out work on weekends a little better in my opinion!
