Signs and Causes
You will likely have just experienced signs of having the incorrect 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:
- Your engine will splutter and not run smoothly
- You may observe lots of smoke from the exhaust
- Your car won't have any power no matter how hard you press the accelerator
- The vehicle will stop on its own
Having said so, if you ever end up in a strange vehicle or a car where the autopilot is operating, you should just relax. Having this information, understanding signs of incorrect fuel in your vehicle or other problems should be easy. And the situation whether you are focusing or not, will not matter either.
Besides wrong fuel in your vehicle, water contamination can also cause your vehicle to run poorly before coming to a halt, regardless of the kind of gas you utilize as a propellant. This means that if you encounter any of the previously mentioned signs, they could also be a result of either of the two.
Diesel engines (modern ones) in these days use AdBlue to reduce nitrous contaminants in the exhaust fumes. Having the right ratio of AdBlue to fuel is essential, 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 as it's is incorrect to mix it with fuel. The signs you will notice is the same as what were mentioned above but don't fret we get it fixed. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can definitely help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.
