mum put petrol in with the deisel, took pipe off to drian tank. anways, used the hot water trick. worked perfect. thanks

does it get clogged up??? is that why it gives false readings. and to fix it i need a new fuel pump???

hi all, my deisel fuel gauge has always been a bit dodgy, never been spot on, only moves about every 30-40 miles by just suddenly drop all of a sudden. but i have just got the car going again after me mother stuck petrol in it, and now the gauge is just being stupid. always showing lower...

nah filter is fine, i,ve checked diameter, just being a propper bitch!! tiny bit of lube didnt do it neither, i dont wanna put too much pressure pushing it in in case it snaps

i.ve got a new fuel filter for my 2.5dt. i got a problem trying to put one of the fuel lines back in. the line between the filter and the pump will not connect back up to the filter. this is just a simple job of pushing on and then clip locks it in place??? dam thing is making the job a...

thought so, i just never heard of it icing up.

yeh but why does it need to be heated, i never seen this on other cars. but then again i only usually work on small things.

since you guys have given me such good advice so far, lets see how u go with this problem. lol i have asked this question before a couple of months back but havent actually got round to fixing the problem. my drop down tailgate on my P38 wont open. took the carpet cover off to access the...

the thing is the batt is crap, really old, holds charge but if engine aint running it doesnt hold out for long. but yesterday while mum was waiting for truck to get the car she had the hazards going and cos she was waiting for 4 hours to be picked up she got bored and put the radio on. but i...
