That experience of refilling your tank with the incorrect fuel would teach a harsh lesson to be very careful in the future. You'll want to go over what exactly are the potential causes of why it happened.

  • You're in a hurry and confused on what exactly to do
  • Not focusing - being on autopilot
  • Vehicle you are using is borrowed, you are not familiar with it

Presence of water in fuel is another issue

A sputtering engine with low power and a lot of smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also signs of water contamination. You should be aware that any fuel which is contaminated with water, regardless of whether your vehicle consumes diesel or petrol , will always fail the engine resulting in an untimely stop.

The running of the engine is typically improved using a diesel system additive known as AdBlue. It is commonly administered wrongly, as such, it is important that it is done by someone who knows how to use it. Or else, it would cause issues and problems to your car. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided by using its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When someone who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is common that they miss the mark.

Just like when a car has incorrect fuel, AdBlue also causes the vehicle not to run smoothly and eventually cause the vehicle to stop. Good news is we are always ready to help. Our technicians are professionals in this area too in addition to issues dealing with water contamination and wrong fuel in the vehicle.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. 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

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
