Wrong Fuel in Car Slack - Petrol in Diesel Car Slack
A motorist had come to a halt on a street, just after having misfueled. She was sobbing and truly agitated as she had put £40 of petrol in her diesel car. As she called us we made an effort to sooth her as best we could, encouraging her that all would be no problem. By the time we reached her she was not upset any more and was really interested in observing our engineer do the fuel drain on her Slack. Afterwards she said: "My vehicle is like my baby, I only recently purchased it and so it really freaked me out that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm terribly glad that it was so easily fixable."
You may experience strange symptoms in your car but you are unsure if it has something to do with the presence of wrong fuel. We have heard situations of customers having similar suspicions only for our technicians to realise a whole different issue. To avoid any doubt, try having these signs of the incorrect fuel in your fingertip. If you hear your engine spluttering and not running nicely, or observe too much smoke from your exhaust causing no power to the car and hence forcing the car to a stop, then that is clear indication of burning the wrong fuel.
So in the future, regardless of whether you are unfamiliar with the car or the autopilot is in control, you do not have to panic. Since you are now acquainted with signs of incorrect fuel or have encountered it, once it occurs you should be able to notice it. And the situation whether you are concentrating or not, will not matter either.
Besides wrong fuel in your car, water contamination can also cause your vehicle to run badly before coming to a halt, regardless of the kind of gas you use as a propellant. Thus, if your car starts showing the aforementioned signs, you should not only suspect wrong fuel but also water contamination.
A lot of modern diesel engines utilize AdBlue, a system that reduces the air pollution of the engine. Having the correct ratio of AdBlue to fuel is significant, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If somebody directly added this to your tank not realizing the right tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble as it's is wrong to mix it with fuel. 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?.

- How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
- Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
