depends on how much...if it's a small amount you could almost try to run it out of the system by constantly diluting with 98ron...it'll probably blow black smoke until it clears out, probably have to baby it.

If it's a lot you're best to siphon it out I think rather than take the risk.

edit: when I say 'small amount' i mean TINY.

ouch!

hope it wasn't much....

this killed a mates car when we were teenagers... his mum borrowed it and BANG

i'd try NOT to drive it anywhere :P

So this wont any serious problem to my engine, i also accidentally tried to start the car and then now the car wont start

accidently? lol not good man how much did u put in there?

a little bit over half

i would get it all out of there if the car didnt start should be ok cos they have fule return lines soo flush it out and get a new fuel filter then put 98 octane in and see how u go make sure u empty the fuel lines to

I am curious as to how you accidentally inserted a diesel fuel pump nozzle into the smaller unleaded hole of your fuel tank snorkel.

Also most diesel pumps have a manual trigger that you have to lift or push, after removing the hose from it's location, to start the pump.

And after all that why would you "accidentally" try to start it :).

- Syphon the tank and replace fuel filter

- Fill with 98ron

- Prime the engine 20 times: Turn key to "on" position then back to "off" or "acc" (do not "accidentally" start the car, by turning key all the way to "start")

- Syphon tank and replace fuel filter... again

- Fill with a fresh batch of 98ron (may also pay to pour a bottle of injector cleaner into the tank before filling)

- Prime a few more times

- Then try to start the engine and see what happens

One thing for sure it's going to be an expensive lesson, good luck!

Was that one of those Diesel Ultimate pumps from BP? They really should change the colour of the handles... Ultimate and Diesel Ultimate are both blue. I park up at the diesel one once but it does say Diesel Ultimate on the handle.

I'm also miffed how you managed to fit a diesel nozzle in.....theyre designed differently for the "life challenged" people out there, if you managed to defeat this safety feature you truly are king.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
