brother van.... again - Rix13 - 01-06-2012

Got a problem with my brothers berlingo van again. Basically it having problems starting and revs all over the spot. When he tries to set off it cuts out even if he applies loads of revs. My dad did put super unleaded in it a while back but done 300 plus miles after we topped it full of derv. Any ideas, it has the dw8 engine in.

Yeah but 300 miles ago shoukd have run it through by then presuming you emptied as much as you could ie fuel tank and lines

Yes but wasn't emptied? Doesn't say anything? Hmmmm 300 miles and it should be at least starting to get better again I woul have thought?


Re: brother van.... again - Rix13 - 01-06-2012

Brimmed it, ran it. Brimmed it again ran and kept doing it


Re: brother van.... again - 4WayDiablo - 01-06-2012

You didn't empty the tanks or lines of petrol?
Well there's your problem, that was a bit stupid wasn'tit ll


Re: brother van.... again - Rix13 - 01-06-2012

Drained as much as could, didnt just leave it


Re: brother van.... again - 4WayDiablo - 01-06-2012

Hdi's really don't like running large amounts of petrol though, I would have drained as much as possible out the tank and lines and so on


Re: brother van.... again - Rix13 - 01-06-2012

Didnt think the dw8 was hdi but then again I just dont do cuddles lol


Re: brother van.... again - 4WayDiablo - 01-06-2012

Wait wut? Its a dw8? I presumed that because you hadn't said anything it is an hdi
Meh
Either way not many diesels can cope with petrol going through
