figgy Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 I'm wondering the same, chemical reaction maybe. As if it didn't run a flush through would clear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t let them lull you into a false sense of security Simon.......I would guess they will be back at some point.........these contemptible, lowlife serial thieves ain’t fussy, they can’t resist stealing any property whoever it belongs to, if they can get their grubby hands on it..........they would even steal the pennies off a dead mans eyes! 😡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enfieldspares Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) Quote If they are intent on stealing fuel i would leave a nice full can of fuel with some nice additive in. Bleach does a nice job. Cashew (nut) shell oil is actually the best additive to petrol to destroy an engine. If you can get it. Or boiled linseed oil mixed with the petrol. Save your sugar for your cornflakes. It's an urban myth from likely Commando or The Valiant comic and Captain Hurricane.
