rodney 17 Posted April 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Halfords and a syphon.... I got one of those self active ones and once it just about starts to flow lift the 25ltr can and then drop it back to the same level as the otherone to stop it. Works a treat!

cadguy77 0 Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 what mix are you using? Link to post Share on other sites
rodney 17 Posted April 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 started at 20% and will play from there... All the sites say 20-25% mix Link to post Share on other sites
cadguy77 0 Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 got told to go for about 10%, methanol being a dry burner, too much would do long term damage Link to post Share on other sites
cadguy77 0 Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 I've asked Shaun @ www.aaoil.com about a discount scheme. Here's the reply: [blockquote]Hi Aswad. Thanks for the feedback. We would like to try and offer your club something, although this would be difficult on the methanol/race fuels as the margins on them are quite low already.Savings could be made on freight though,if there was a group buy, as long as we can ship to one address. For example, if we shipped one 25 litre can of fuel say to a Norrthampton post code, the cost would be £20.70. If we were to send six 25 litre cans, the freight would be £49.93 and only £8.32 per can.If you have visited our website, you will see we do a wide range of oils and lubricants. If these are of interest, we could offer a discount on these products.Please let me know what you think. I’m out of the office tomorrow, but back next week after the Easter break.RegardsShaun WilliamsSunoco & R racing fuels76 & Sunoco LubricantsAnglo American Oil Company Ltd3 Holly CloseSandfordWarehamDorset, BH20 7QE+44 (0)1929 555973( direct)+44(0) 1929 551557( switchboard)+44 (0)1929 551567 (fax)shaun@aaoil.co.ukwww.aaoil.co.uk[/blockquote] Link to post Share on other sites
