    After noting a significant amount of topics relating to Diesel technology, be it VW related, or not, we though it about time we opened a Diesel section.

    This forum is to be used to discuss things of a diesel nature ranging from the fuel itself, through to Bio fuels such as those derived from plants etc.

    Enjoy!

    Where does the black in Guinness go when you wee wee? I mean, how can something blacker than a black night with the consistency of used engine oil come out crystal clear within 20 minutes after 10 pints?

    I'd never ever have thought I'd find myself agreeing with something like that, but yet I am here finding that I do.... I wish I'd gone derv sooner. It doesn't sound like a V6, but when a tank of fuel gets you 650 miles, and you embarass many, many petrol cars.... it becomes irrelevant.

    here here, diesel for life,

    the power

    the economy

    the pleasure,

    the turbo

    the pull,

    up hills effortless,

    down hills pure beauty.

    650+ miles on a single tank

     

    the only way to live really.

     

    if love is life and life is diesel

    Love = Diesel

    Mods/Admin!!

    You need to give in to the overwhelming public demand (well 3 of us) and rename this forum "The Smokers Room" it may even drum up a little more interest in it.Wink
