Wrong Fuel in Car Bagley - Petrol in Diesel Car Bagley

He thought it would be good to fill up before continuing on to the local holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol as opposed to diesel which unfortunately wasn't a good beginning to our holiday." It was absolutely no trouble at all for our technician to go and perform the fuel drain.

So in the future, regardless of whether you are not familiar with the car or the autopilot is in control, you do not have to fear. Having this information, understanding signs of wrong fuel in your car or other issues should be easy. And the situation whether you are concentrating or not, will not matter either.
Your fuel might also be contaminated with water
You should remember that the contamination of fuel by water is another issue that can cause the same signs described above. It will make your car behave abnormally and eventually stops regardless of whether it runs on diesel or petrol thus you should also suspect it if you are in a situation of doubt.
Diesel engines (modern ones) today utilize AdBlue to reduce nitrous pollution in the exhaust fumes. Having the right ratio of AdBlue to fuel is critical, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If somebody isn't mindful of this and tries to add it straight into the tank, it will cause problems. You will start to notice similar symptoms mentioned above but you should not be worried about it.

A few examples:
Wrong Fuel in Car Bagley - Petrol in Diesel Car Bagley
It was just after six pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated there discussing the recent tennis, waiting around for the sixth job of the day to come in. Finally we got a call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling station and put petrol in a diesel Bagley rental. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated apparently, saying "I can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, and that such things do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a protected position and, since it was only a few miles from the office, we could find the woman swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and much less worried. One more job well done in my mind!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Bagley - Fuel Rescue Bagley
It truly was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was roughly sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had been pretty uneventful so far, and Mark and I were loafing about looking at a number of old newspapers. This was a rare calm moment. Actually it was so quiet that when the telephone finally rang I leaped! The motorist on the opposite end said: "I've only just concluded my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in the Bagley". We got him to tell us exactly where the car was located and we set off, reaching him under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He said many thanks for coming out so quickly. As we were coming back home we noticed two girls on the side of the road who looked like they had a flat. Accordingly we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.
