Get a new sparkplug.
youll have to drop the gas tank and empty it... dont start it the car either
im assuming this is the intercooled engine.... pull off the bottom water hose on the radiator drain coolant refit the hose top up the coolant via the expansion tank on the inner wing when it looks full( to the full mark on tank not full to the brim) start the engine and let it get warm so the thermostat opens and turn the interior heater on full and set the control to blow hot air then check the coolant level top up if nessesary rev the engine a few times if u have over filled it it will overflow..... dont worry bout it it will settle
The short answer is no. The diesel has a higher relative density (its heavier) than petrol and sinks to the bottom of the tank. It is then picked up by the fuel pump. I'm afraid you must drain the tank. If you HAVE NOT attempted to start the engine the fuel system will still be full of petrol. Refill the tank with petrol and start the engine. It might be smoky and lumpy after it starts. KEEP IT RUNNING, drive it on the road until the smoke clears. You may find the smoke reappears on the first start after standing idle for a while. Gradually it will clear. If you have run the engine the fuel system is now full of diesel and must be flushed out. drain the tank, refill with petrol. If you leave the ignition on for a while the pump will purge out the system back to the tank. However the lines to the injectors will also be full of diesel. Crank the engine over and it will eventually stutter to life. Your battery has to be good! Alistair.

Remove the radiator cap and fill with coolant until full, (Engine Cold). Start the engine and let it run to help remove any trapped air. Refill as necessary. Fill the coolant recovery tank to the full mark after the engine cool down.
Because the car has a full tank of gas.
Do not start the engine! You will need to have the fuel tank removed and drained because there is no drain plug in the tank.
Will cause engine damage If large amount in tank car will not start or run
Get some of the fuel stabilizer and mix it according to the instructions, then make sure you run the engine enough to get plenty into the injectors. Then either completely empty the tank and lines or keep it full and occasionally start the engine throught he winter. Completely full will keep water from condensing in the tank. If that's a possibility in your are, put a little fuel line de-icer in the tank as well. I like a full tank because it keeps the water from condensing. But you can only do that if you use the fuel stabilizer. "Stabil" is one brand. If you start the motorcycle during the winer you will have to run it til it get hot (hot) Otherwise water will condense in the motor oil.
Connect a freon tank an gauge to the Astros low side ac port. Start the engine and open the ac to high. Open the freon tank and fill the system till the gauge shows full.
Does it start when the van is not so full? Sounds like the gas is plugging the tank vent.
Yes if your tank is empty but not if it has some diesel in it, But not if your car runs on gasoline.
