We got there quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel.

Symptoms and Causes
You will likely have just encountered signs of having the wrong fuel in your car, but in the heat of the moment, you may not have taken them all in so here they are again for future reference, in case:
- The engine won't work and it's spluttering
- You may notice lots of smoke from the exhaust
- Even you totally press the accelerator, the engine still seems no power to run
- The car will stop on its own
With those indications in mind, regardless of your experience with vehicles, in future circumstances you can rest easy. Loaded with information and from experience, you should be able to detect incorrect fuel in your vehicle quickly. It would not matter if you're concentrating on the issue or not, you will just detect it.
You should also bear in mind that wrong fuel is not the only problem that can cause your car to show the above signs. The presence of water in fuel is another problem which can make your vehicle not run efficiently and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel used. So, if you experience the above signs, then you should suspect the two.
Diesel engines (modern ones) these days make use of AdBlue to reduce nitrous contaminants in the exhaust fumes. Having the correct ratio of AdBlue to fuel is significant, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If someone directly added this to your tank not realizing the correct tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble since it is is wrong to mix it with fuel. You will start observing the same signs mentioned above but you shouldn't be worried about it. Just keep in mind what we say to you, "we will always be around you and ready to help in your engine trouble, just ask for assistance and we'll be there".
