So I filled a jerry can at the petrol station. Paid with a tenner, expecting £3.50 change or so, and instead got £13.50.
Thank you please!
No revs :cry:
Dunno why I done that, this time lol.Quote:

How much are the Ford ones? This was £24 retail. £18 trade. Still a lot imo.
I just read tonight that some TDCI's don't like non-OE filters.
Cheap one tend to not seal as good drawing in airQuote:

Doesn't do it that often, but it's a minefield of possibilities working out what is at fault.
Seems to be low fuel pressure shutting off the pump.
My money is on injectors needing cleaned. Too much supermarket fuel. lol
It first happened about 10 miles from home with an empty car trailer and a 1K mile journey ahead to get my Escort/stuff for my mates MR2.
Should have seen his face when I said I was still going. lol
I'm sorry, I banged my head as a child.Quote:

Will be, yeah. Same as the Jaaaaag too. Not like their owners like to hear this. lolQuote:
