I should know better....dry running an injection pump kills them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott 0 Posted February 20, 2004 Same here but there was no way I was putting cheap fuel in her :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveStorm 0 Posted February 21, 2004 Ah ok guys you beat me, but obviously it varies according to the pence per litre you pay, mine was 83.9p which i think is fuc*ing outrageous! Living in the back of beyond doesn't help the the fuel distribution costs I guess but even so I reckon it's a rip off, just another overtaxed burden that the poor old motorist has to bear :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stormseeker 0 Posted February 21, 2004 You wanna try filling a V8 Discovery or Range Rover - 90 litre tank, and approx. 13 mpg (if you're lucky) :shock: :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
