Certain additives in petrol could, in
combination with ethanol, cause
reduced driveability. For this
reason, refuel with a full tank of
petrol every 6000 miles. Use up
the majority of this before
refuelling the car again.

water emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
