United Boost 98 Has Killed My Car

[RS500]

I bought the fuel from the Mornington United on the corner of Mornington-Tyabb Rd and Racecourse Rd in early January.

And in response to me being keen to spend money on coils, I'm not really, I just don't know a lot about these kind of issues, so I thought that if that was definitely the answer then I may as well do it. But after reading further advice I will obviously try the cheaper options first.

ok.

the reason i asked is b/c a friend told me about a United petrol station in Doncaster East (reynolds rd i think) which had their unleaded tanks filled with diesel by mistake a few weeks ago.

i guess u don't have to worry about it.

ouch..

just as bad as an idiot putting unleaded into one of the trucks at work which clearly states "DIESEL FUEL ONLY"

Just thought I would add to this topic now that it has been resolved.

I took the car to one mechanic who put in incorrectly gapped plugs and bollocksed up the BOV install that I had done while it was there. These two things made it run even worse than before.

I then took it to Ray at RE Customs who fixed up the BOV installation, took out the plugs and fixed the gap and then gave it a boot on the dyno, the end result being 188kw@wheels.

It feels bloody good to be able to boot the car for the first time since January. Even though it was a relatively simple fix, it was great to talk to someone who actually knew what they were talking about, I know where I'll be going in the future when the mod bug bites again.
