Today i couldnt be stuffed going all da way to BP so i went to Shell to fill the car up. When i went to turn the car on it coughed a bit but started so im like oook then... so after about 3 minutes of driving in a 80 Zone the car lost all power and turn off. Without panicking i rolled it with the speed i had into the far side lane and turned the hazard lights on. I tryed turning the car on, it coughed but turned on, and than turned off a few seconds later, i tried this several times but it still wasnt going to happen. Then this ass hole in a Ford Falcon comes right up my ass and gives his horn a beating and im like wtf, then he pulls up next to me and creates traffic on a 80 Zone and i go "What the fcuk is your problem c*nt, cant you see the fcuken hazard lights, isnt the other 2 lanes enought for you" with out saying anything he pulls up in front of me and did the saddest burnout i have ever seen in my life.

So than i rang a mate up and he came down, we had to empty the tank and fill it up with some of his fuel, the car then worked fine.

Anyone else ever had buggered up fuel from Shell?

i hope u kept the fuel...

ive seen this happen plenty of times in other cars... generally water causes this.

You should be able to see it quite easily if u put it in a jar as they have different densities.

keep it and take it to the place and see what they say.... speak to the consumer affairs and also get a mechanic to do a full check of the engine etc.

u can take legal action against them.

theres been plenty of rain around here...

also if u have had the car checked out recently by a mechanic before you went there it would also work in ur favour.

this is true...  

which petrol station is it so we know to stay clear

I dont know the address, its the intersection one on Stud Road with BP across the road, and car lovers across that.

Coudlnt it be Petrol poisoning by mixing Shell with BP?? That could have caused something.

The tank was near empty.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
