Appreciate this, awaiting recovery then will try when I'm home. Thank you

Hi guys, I have 1.7TD and have pushed my luck and ran out of fuel. I know you can't just put fuel in them. What's the procedure for getting this sorted? TIA

Oh no :lol::lol::lol::lol: I've not put any more in since I last time, but it ran perfectly. Bit worrying when I'm in start stop traffic as it stinks :hmmm: but I've got myself another daily now so the Astra is up for sale :confused:

Thanks for the fast reply mate, I'm fortunate enough to be blessed with the Isuzu engine :biggrin:

Hi there, I've just bought a MK3 Astra as a daily whilst my BMW goes off for works for show season. Is there anyway of getting it to roll coal? Thanks in advance :bounce:
