craig mac Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 Folks Was in at T&C today for a little banter.... One of the lads, mechanics, took a brand new forester for the weekend and filled her at Tesco. Loaded in the kids wife etc for a trip to Ikea Glasgow. Got to the other side of Stonehaven...Car Died......Could not find anything obvious.....Towed back to T&C for investigation. Why did the car cut out and not restart....................Fuel Filter was choked to the max!! Car has plastic tank too So beware of cheap Tesco fuel folks, not that many of us do use it but, now we know defo not to use it even in an emergancy Craig
