a GALLON of Mogas. Why?? Avgas weighs more per Gallon...

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Energy content
Gasoline contains about 34.6 megajoules per litre (MJ/l) or 131 MJ/US
gallon. This is an average, gasoline blends differ, therefore actual
energy content varies from season to season and from batch to batch,
as much as 4% more or less than the average, according to the US EPA.
Fuel type BTU/US gal Research octane
Regular Gasoline 125,000 Min 91
Aviation gasoline 120,200
