    Ran out of diesel earlier and could only get some farmers wine from a friend of a friend while coming home earlier, how long will it take to get it out of the system as planning in filling white tomo?

    A few clues would help -did you put in one litre or 100 litres, drive 1km home or 100 km and if you bung in white on top of a feed of green, it ends up all being greeny. Dodgy racket these days if you get dipped, you're fcuked. Especially if you have a business.

    I just put in a gallon of it, got advice off a farmer in the pub to fill white into a container and drive until jeep runs out and fill in white and should be fine then.

    it would take a fill or 2 to get rid of it full i would imagine. dangerous business tho. i dont know about here but when i was working in the uk, a few of the lads used to run there cars on nothing but. one of them got caught, 500 on the spot fine or the car was gone or something, but the killer was, over there they back tax/fine you for however long you have owned the car for. as far as they are concerned you have been using cherry(uk) for as long as you have had the car. this particular fella had 3 cars all diesel, got fined for all of them.

    you could just drain the tank and be finished with it, but how likely is it that you will get dipped?

    What kind of jeep?

    Some have a drain plug in the tank.

    If your dipped by customs it'll still show up. Unless you remove the bung and drain the tank completely then flush it out and refill again there will still be trace amounts showing. A trace amount us enough for them to prosecute you. I'd be very careful if I were you.

    Well if they suspected you at all wouldn't they just pull the fuel filter and that would show if it was ever run on green. I've heard of them looking at fuel filters before but how much they do it in practice i don't know.

    The residue will last approx 6-9 months assuming your on average mileage

    The man in the pub is talking out of his hat.
