The missus accidently put a few quids worth of diesel into the tank and drove it home spluttering and backfiring....[About 12miles].
I suspect it was the new eco diesel as the pump was green in color she swears...
Tried bleeding out fuel from the mainb feed in the engine bay...took out the plugs and dried them. Also
topped up the tank with to half full with clean petrol. Poured a little into the TB and it almost kicks in at first when trying to start.
We also turned the engine over with plugs taken out to blow out the cylinders....and tried towing it..
Has anyone experienced this before and if so any more ideas?
I'm thinking the fuel filter is most likely saturated in diesel perhaps? Would it be best to replace this?
