Kevin Wilson Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 My Brother has a regular outing from Lincolnshire to Southern Models doing a fuel run for his club. Always makes me think of running moonshine. The amount of Nitro in his car, the fireball would be similar as well! He should probably display a Hazmat warning on his Jazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brokenenglish Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Yeah, I live in the country, in the middle of France, so you can imagine the problem obtaining diesel fuel (there's no commercial availability in France, and no ether to mix your own). I decided that the only certain solution is this "one occasional fuel run" for a large quantity. In 2008, I visited the UK, dropped by Southern Modelcraft (not far from Dover) and brought back enough fuel for 5 years. Finally, last summer, a friend visiting me from the UK, picked up 60 litres of diesel fuel and ether for me, which should last the rest of my life... Sounds a bit extreme perhaps, but it's good not to have that nagging worry of what am I going to do when I run out of fuel. Before the safety maniacs comment... it's no more dangerous than any car with a full fuel tank... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a lot of finger flicking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
