:woot :woot :woot :woot  Noggy wins!!!!!






What's my prize?.......some free fuel :rolleyes








Did you stick one of those standard issue French Baguettes in the tank to soak it up.






Can safely say i've never done that but my wifes step dad stuck £80 of petrol in his diesel 4x4 last week before he realised, he had a big Kia Sorento...had it towed to the stealers....about £300 later he got it back but he had driven it about 6 miles :o .

[mickvp]

ouch.

do you have breakdown cover?

[ChristoT]

Yep. Luckily, I didn't start the engine. The car got delivered home by the RAC, still cost £28. Beats the £199 they wanted to pump it out!

Will drain the tank either tomorrow or Saturday.

[mickvp]

bit of a result there mate. if you had started it, it would be more than £29 worth in headaches for you, if nothing else.

[noggythenog]

Would you spend £3.99 to save up to £3000 ?

You would if you had a Diesel Vehicle.

Every year over 1.5 Million fuelling errors occur ! Don't be one of them. Petrol wrecks and can destroy diesel engines. Petrol in a Diesel engine will cause catastrophic damage that will result in the engine having to be stripped down and rebuilt, and the entire fuel system will have to be drained and cleaned !!

Can you manage without your vehicle whilst this is been done, the costs are up to £3000 let alone additional costs such as hire cars, towing in and the sheer inconvenience.

Simply attach the low cost FUELRITE wobbler inside the fuel filler cap. This then serves as a warning to ANYONE fuelling the vehicle... Ideal for company fleets with multiple fuel vehicles and ideal for families were people drive and fuel assorted cars.

FUELRITE clear visible warning fitted in seconds.

WARNING
If you ever put the wrong fuel in a Diesel Tank DO NOT START THE ENGINE !!
