Hi All,
Yes it's happened. After riding around and getting used to putting unleaded in the bike....... I went and put the same in the C220cdi.
After reading all the other threads on the forum on what to do I'm suitably scared into draining the tank. (20 litres into a complete refill I realised I was using unleaded, then completely filled to the brim with diesel and drove home gingerly)
Having a look around underneath I can't see an obvious or easy way to drain the tank.
Does anyone have any information on the easiest way to drain the thing?
It's a W203 coupe (CL203)
I'm currently syphoning, but the only pipe I could get to go round the bends is 4mm nylon capillary! It's been 4 hours already and only 20 litres has come out. (Damn sure it's not the 20 litres of unleaded either) There's also no guarantee that the pipe is sat on the bottom of the tank. It'll probably stop just as I go to bed!
Thanks in advance
Lulu
