Postby MR2SIK » Thu May 25, 2006 7:35 pm

HEy, Im heading down to chch this Saturday and need about 10L of avgas, Its too hard to get hold of here in Nelson now and Im going to be on a very limited time basis. if anyone here is able to get hold of some for me to pick up quickly sometime on Saturday morning, I will pay for the gas and then some for your time and effort.
If anyone can help just reply here or pm me :D

just get a tank of 98.
The difference between 98 and avgas is very minimal.

And a bonus is you wont have to clean your o2 sensor :)

Just grab some on the way into chch. Turn off at the Marshlands exit off the motorway and go to Challenge Waimak with your fuel container :P

Palmside is in the same boat - they sell 'racegas' not 'avgas' there is a difference.

Yeah, I heard that too. The guys I know who run buggies and whatnot, get 98, then a couple of bottles of that octane booster crap, I've never personally tried it though, but in theory it isn't far off avgas.
