I thought it could be had for as low as $1.00 recently.... wheres everyone getting it from in adelaide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good if you are almost empty when you reach the servo!Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good if you are almost empty when you reach the servo!Briantrue Brian, I had a chat to the guy behind the counter while I was there the other night, he said they are only ordering 10,000L at a time due to the hydroscopic nature of the fuel. He said they now understand what most people are using it for and they can appreciate that customers don't want dodgy fuel.My two mates that run E85 in their weekend cars (still street driven, not dedicated track cars) do a run probably once every 2 weeks depending on use. They work 15mins from Roselle so its easy for them to make a phone call before they take a few drums and stock up.It really is a brilliant fuel, as long as you don't need to go for long distance trips...
