I dont think any common carriers (UPS etc.) will touch gas. You'll have to find a speed shop/motorcycle shop etc. that sells it. Then they might not have unleaded or what you are looking for, but they will order it.

It's a hasmat # 1203 you better believe common carries can't touch it. I get Union 76 100 octane unleaded for 3.25 plus 7.5 sales tax here in Redding. The motor reseach + engine number /2 would run just under 97 octane as close as the dealer can figure... Northern Lights Energy.. it makes a very noticable diff. the engine revs much smoother and will run at lower RPM in 5th. without balking. The operators manuals call for 98 octane if my nearly 57 yr. old memory serves.

Yea, but look at their prices. $11.88/ga for Sunoco GT100. Hell, order enough from me and I'll bring it to your house for that price.

Did you try Home Depot? I work @ Home Depot, and we sell Xylene by the gallon. If no luck there, what about local paint shops?

The bay area is one of the easiest places in the US to find stations selling unleaded race gas at the pump!

If you had 5 gallons of 100 octane and 5 gallons of 93 octane mixed eqaully would you get 96.5 octane?

Does anyone know about this? I found a sort of local GT 100 sunoco gas station about 20 miles from me in Lakeland, I might go check it out...

What do you think of your Nitto 555 (235/40/19)? Are they comparable to the stock Yokahamo?
