• Shell vs supermarket 27 Nov 2002 (Forum)
  . Both times at Tesco I have noticed the fuel markedly more frothy and difficult to get brimmed full (to measure fuel consumption - anally retentive I know...) I was wondering what information this gives on the content of surfactants to help keep the engine clean??

• Ford Mondeo 2.0 Diesel 2005 55000 miles - Glow Plug Light Flashing/Engine Cutting out 27 Oct 2015 (Forum)
  Injector Fuel Pump - cost to replace - about £1100! Don't listen to anyone about water in the fuel, camshaft sensors, crankshaft sensors, even injectors. These are all red herrings. There is a known problem with the internal workings of the fuel pump that fail and send swarf through the system. Very
• Volkswagen Bora - Brain teaser.. 52 plate Bora 1.9 TDI wont start 18 May 2014 (Forum)
  the car is cranked over, all readings on my mates snap on diagnostic seem correct. We used a NOID to check the trigger signal to the injectors and all appear ok. When the fuel feed or return to the tandem pump is removed fuel sprays out therefore lift pump is working and filter not blocked. Fuel

• Budget 2012 21 Mar 2012 (Forum)
  from an expected move to scrap or announce plans to scrap the 50p top rate of income tax, which is an extremely risky political move even if it does net far lower than originally planned. The upshot of all that though is i doubt there will be any move on fuel duty, given the expense incurred

• Hyundai Tucson - Tucson diesel fuel consumption 18 Mar 2011 (Forum)
  , it belongs to the wife of one of the directors, so no worries on that score. I am a little concerned, however, about fuel consumption of this model which seems to have been a bone of contention between owners and Hyundai. The official combined mpg is quoted as 39.2 but I have read reports of owners achieving

• Renault Espace (1985 - 1997) - 93 2.1TD stalls on return journey 7 Mar 2009 (Forum)
  as is there is a problem when the engine cools down, but does not get fully cold. The car has new fuel and air filters, most fuel lines are new and a recently replaced injection pump. Fuel comes from a variety of filling stations. When the car runs, it is a fantastic vehicle to drive, it is becoming too stressful to use
