It's what you feel comfortable with, and how much you want to save / how much to repair.
Also like I said it was summer and warm :)

It's a VM engine
Have a look at the top of it ;)
On the near side of the engine, follow the injector pipes back to the pump and it will say Bosch on top of it :)
Also do not just take my word for it - have a look at this website, which is very informative

Hi all
Anyone with a '97 XJ diesel (facelift) or anyone tell me if the engine is ok?
Thanks! :cool:

NZOliver will be paying around $nz 1.30 per litre ... that converts to about 51p in sterling at todays rates :?
I guess therefore that running it on anything other than straight derv would not be worth the risk of damage to the engine.
Anyone else fancy emigrating ?
The Smiths:
I wouldn't be running on veg if diesel was 51p.
But thats probably why mikeH is asking.

been running all my diesels on veg oil`s even my landy`s, but i must say that the 90 doesnt like it much
seems to loose a lot of power, but the jeep seems to run better i get 28-30 on straight derv
and abour 32-36 on 30% mix, may increase it to 50% if others sat it can handel it
