NB MX5.
Bit of an oversight on the engineers part. The fuel cap is on the boot.
Last year in March we had torrential rain which flooded the fuel hose thanks to a blocked drainage pipe.
Car ended up at the garage, old fuel pumped out and things opened up to allow to dry.
Fast forward to now….
Again, last weekend massive rain.
Go to take the car to the MOT, give it a 20 minute blast along the motorway to give it a bit of a workout. 200m from the test centre and it starts pogoing, like it’s filled with kangaroo petrol.
Called the tow people, they’re on their way.
I opened the fuel lid and have left it open. Been sat there for half an hour and it now starts up…. Can’t have been masses of water in there, right? I mean, the drain was cleared.
Should I risk it or take it to a garage?
