Indicators of incorrect fuel
the symptoms of wrong fuel are quite evident, but in most instances you might not be able to observe all of them. Nevertheless, if your engine begins sputtering or if you start seeing a lot of smoke emerging from the exhaust, or your vehicle stops and shows no power at all even if you press the accelerator harder and harder, then it is obvious that you have put the wrong fuel in your vehicle.
Noting all of the above, I suppose you'll be very careful in your next stop at the petrol station to refill. From now on, consider those common causes of putting the wrong fuel in your car:

As pointed out earlier, there are other issues that could be the cause of your vehicle troubles other than incorrect fuel. Water contamination is one of them, which causes similar bad car performance, commonly ending in your vehicle breaking down. So, in case you experience the above signs, then you should suspect the two.
The incorrect filling of AdBlue is another factor which can cause your car to show signs such as sputtering, discharge of a lot of smoke and even stoppage.

You should thus remember that whether it is wrong fuel or adding AdBlue directly, we can help you hit back on the road.
