Today I stupidly ran out of dieselillyme:
I put some diesel in the tank and tried to start it, forgetting that it was a Diesel and not a Petrol, so I got out and gave the rubber ball-thing a few squeezes and then tried again.
After a couple of attempts where it started but died after a few seconds it finally started up and seems to be running ok now.
However...
- Engine check light is on (cause by low fuel pressure in the fuel rail?) this should go out of it's own accord eventually??
- Every so often, usually when engine is idling at standstill it sounds as if the "top-end" of the engine is quite noisy, more so than usual.
Will this sort itself out? or do I need to bleed the system or something??
