Mar 19, 2010 by | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
Just put 18L of E10 into a near empty tank of my 3 month old diesel Hyundai i30 this afternoon !
Had to have it towed to the Hyundai dealer I managed to drive it 10klms before realizing performance was down.I won't know how bad it is till Monday! The suspense is killing me !
Need to know if RACQ Insurance can cover me
nope.
you can put diesel in a petrol car, will smoke like buggery but will be ok. petrol in a diesel is bad, expect a rather large bill and maybe a void warranty?
some people put in a tiny amount of petrol in a diesel to stop the fuel freezing in the tank but i think 18lts might be a bit much :-)

A very long letter from Mum Minnick
Welcome to the "living room" of the Steve Bixby family~ where news and pictures are shared, and we have about 5 conversations going at once! Visitors are always welcome, and your comments will be appreciated. This is, however, a family blog. It is just a peek into our family room. Note to family members- just like at home, visitors could stop in any time. Let's keep the living room in "decent" order, and not say anything any more shocking than we would any time we had guests! I’m not sure when I will be able to send this, but Rod said he could get broadband at his place at times, so I’m hoping he can send this off. Or the Jaworskis maybe later on. SO much has happened that I wanted to jot down a few things before they leave my mind. Of course, we probably won’t get to email, skype, talk on the landline for a couple of weeks or more, so this will have to do for now. I’ll start at the beginning. Here were go . . . .
