Ive just put 2 litres of perol in my diesel tank. i filled tank right
up with 70 litres of diesel in the hope that the petrol will be on
the
top and i can syphon it off .

Advice please


I am not going to comment on the fuel, only make a suggestion that you
fit one of these or something silmilar.

I fitted one (cannot remember the make) to the apprentices Kangoo
after a full tank of unleaded was put in by mistake.

Well spotted!

have you noticed how Paul's audi turns into a bmw halfway through their
story?


Wow - just goes to show how serious the effects can be of putting in the
wrong fuel, eh?

Wish I'd known about these gadgets a few weeks ago actually. When we
replaced one of our cars very recently I made the conscious decision *not*
to go for a diesel, as I figured that with SWMBO (no offence, love...) and
teenagers both driving it alongside our existing petrol-engined job, it
would only be a matter of time before I had an expensive cock-up on my
hands.

What on earth made you think the wife or kids would be putting fuel in the
car?
