hi all, in low gears,,the car splutters for the odd second then its fine. then it happens again, so on- Appearently this is a known prob that can happen when water seeps through the petrol cover hole and spots can get into the petrol tank. So i am running the petrol down as low as i can, hopeing it will go as its got to get out at some point. has anyone ever had this problem, and did it go- Not the end of the world but it just means taking it to the garage to clear the tank out, just wanted to know if anyones cleared up before that!,,of course that damn orange engine light came on again!
any thts appreciated,

Wynns make some stuff that merges the water with the petrol in the tank about £7 for a bottle I think, will cure the current problem. Found at most trade motor counters.

Its trade only type stuff so not Halfrauds, places like Partco & Motoquip will probably sell it, or maybe ask some of the Ebay sellers who do Wynns stuff.
