How do I Get my Diesel back ?
I'm trading in my Pug 307 diesel and theres quite alot of Diesel still in it whats the quickest and easiest way to get it out ? 

Re: How do I Get my Diesel back ?
Pierce the tank,drain it then stick some gaffer tape over the hole.
Or just tell them when you trade it in its got a full tank so youd like the new car filling up the same.Thats what my mate did once,didnt tell the garage it had a sticky gauge,only had half a tank lol.

That's worrying - most of us only think we don't like the taste of diesel.

I had a response involving bus shelters in mind, but I've noticed a lot of space under DiscoPol's signature.

I know for a fact that you can't syphon a 206 (my neighbour had one written off and we couldn't syphon it) think there's a plate at the bottom of the filler neck.
