Now things get complicated as companies have to figure out how to market and distribute the fuel in a universe where 100LL hasn't been prohibited yet and is still the dominant piston fuel.

Maybe that has something to do with Kwinana closing. Caltex and Ampol say their fuel is just <1% benzine and "natural gasoline" ...... I am not sure what that actually means but I would like to think they are being truthful and it is only what comes from crude oil distillation. Soup indeed! I am not trusting any fuel if it isn't fresh. I only buy from high volume outlets and drain out any fuel more than a few weeks old and add it to the fresh fuel in my car.

(the one refinery did all the brands bp,ampol, caltex, mobil etc) we now have fuel coming in from all over the place so god knows what sort of soup we are getting. particularly with more little "cheap" brands like atlas, puma, vibe, better choice, united etc. luckily the mogas bowser at the club airfield is still being supplied by bp so although not perfect at least we should have an idea of whats in it. ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> on behalf of Rob Thompson <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Wednesday, September 7, 2022 6:43 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [DOG mailing list] Fuel Brands & Quality G'day Everyone, I just did a check of the Material Safety Data Sheets (attached) for the major 98 RON fuel brands in Australia and a few things have changed. All the brands have up to 1% Benzine but.... BP and Shell are loading their fuel with hexane, toluene, xylene, napthalene and ether....basically paint thinners which boost the RON rating but evaporate quickly...starting as soon as they leave the refinery. As they evaporate your fuel goes stale quicker. I once had some Shell fuel which started to detonate after only 5 weeks of storage. Ampol and Caltex are selling fuel with only Benzine and natural Gasoline. This means a longer shelf life and less prone to fuel going stale and detonation. BP used to do this but not any more.
