    Germany is asking the EU to urgently review their ban on petrol and diesel engines and  to consider running these cars on E-fuels.  The engines would still emit carbon at the exhaust but a carbon offset at production of the new fuel would offset this.  A device fitted

    Doing a few routine service items on the old Corsa. Easy access to everything so far. But the fuel filter is something which appears to be a little different. I guess it is under the fuel tank somewhere- is it easy to reach? Haynes says to depressurise the fuel system by dismantling the front

    Citroen Berlingo van - 2007 Fuel/glow plug problem - hot running becomes a non-starter and RAC advised a faulty fuel pressure switch/sensor? All the research I’ve done points to a ‘multi-function relay’ issue? Would these be the same thing? Is this easily replaced by a DIY’er? Any advice

  • Between Branded and supermarket fuel 10 Jul 2008 (Forum)
    I think everybody knows that supermarkets like Morrison's, Tesco etc fuel is cheaper than branded name like Shell and BP. Somehow I have the feeling based on unverified experience that supermarket fuel is less efficient in terms of mile per gallon it covers. Is this true? or am I just imagining
