Avgas? (Read 2,867 times)

Hey there, trying to find a reliable source for Avgas for the upcoming season.  Where is everyone buying theirs from?

Maybe a clue as to where you are located might give more helpful answers.

I know that (Gull) Manfeild Autocentre 62 Awahuri Road in Feilding has a reliable supply of Avgas for those in Manawatu.

Yip sorry, that would have been helpful aye!

We're based on the North Shore Auckland but will go anywhere in or around Auckland if need be.

By far the easiest. Go to Z aviation and get a fuel card then you just swipe it a pump whenever you want. You also pay a lot less, Last year I was paying $2.20/L on average, cash price $3.00/L.

You have to jump through a lot of hoops in terms of documentation but it is worth it in the end.

try get a bp aviation card and get fuel from north Shore Air Field in Dairy Flat. Getting a Fuel card can be tricky though

I used to go out to Ardmore and get it from the shell truck, I have his mobile number and would ring him first or help me locate him when I was out there, happy to share the number if you PM me. I just called him, $3 per litre today.

I just run BP 98 these days so much easier!

I have used gull force 10 for the past few seasons in my stockcar which is 10% ethanol and also used by the BNT V8 supertourers.

Waaaaaay cheaper and you can buy it off the pump from any Gull station instead of going for a goose chase to the airfield.

Also assuming that this is going into a vehicle with only 10:1 compression then avgas is probably a waste of money.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.
Avgas is sooooooooo over rated
