BEST 2 LITRE(ish) PLODDER DIESEL .... ??

Hello,

PSA does. Indeed, there's an agreement in France for companies to fill their tanks with this 30% mix in the case of captive fleet (the cars which never leave a closed area). And so, they use HDis with that fuel... These cars musn't have many miles, even if the production sites sometimes are gigantic. I've been visiting once the Sochaux plant, some cars* were parked with a big sign on the bonnet saying "Usage interne" (: internal use) and having no reg plates.

  • Among others, a 307, a couple of days before its official launch. Eeeer I've seen a lot of them around, indeed :-)

Regards,

Have not seen any round Weybridge Addlestone area selling bio diesel.dont think i would like to try it in my pug 405.police would love that as they are very tight at the mo with cars smoking round town.

I have just bought a 405 1.9TD (1993) with a Bosch fuel pump. One of the reasons for choosing this car was that the engine should take SVO without any problems.

I'll let you know how I get on.

My Defender 110 (200TDi) runs on 100% SVO in the summer with no problems. I am in the middle of fitting a dual tank system for the winter.

Cheers

Peter
