Having said so, if you ever find yourself in a strange vehicle or a car where the autopilot is operating, you should just relax. Since you are now informed about signs of incorrect fuel or have encountered it, once it occurs you should be able to observe it. And the situation whether you are concentrating or not, will not matter either.

You should also be aware that incorrect fuel is not the only problem that can cause your vehicle to show the aforementioned indications. The presence of water in fuel is another problem which can make your vehicle not work efficiently and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel utilized. 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) today use AdBlue to reduce nitrous contaminants in the exhaust fumes. Having the correct ratio of AdBlue to fuel is essential, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If you hire somebody to directly add this to your tank without knowing the right procedure, it's more likely to cause trouble to your engine. Again, the signs 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?.
