Lycoming to approve 93 octane auto gas for O-360 & IO-360

There is no real reason that FBO's can not get un-tainted gasoline. The alcohols are added in when the truck is filled. The difficulties are procedural not strategic... In some states the alcholol is required by law in auto fuel. Not sure if the refinerys are going to be interested in making a special aviation batch when they already make 100LL. As I said, it's added at the truck-loading station. Not at the refinery. So if it's NOT being sold for cars.... -- A host is a host from coast to & no one will talk to a host that's close........[v].(301) 56-LINUX Unless the host (that isn't close).........................pob 1433 is busy, hung or dead....................................20915-1433 |

How about the requirements for truck delivery of 100LL? I once understand that there can be no other fuel on board the truck, and that the tank(s) have to be flushed with 100 LL and the flushing mixture thrown away (a hazardous waste?) before the airport load is put in. AFAIK, 100LL is not moved by pipeline anywhere. So it's trucked/railed to either the final destination airport or a truck loading terminal. I suspect the delivery truck from there may be dedicated to 100LL, but maybe not. I can't see the requirement before delivering 100LL; but after may be an issue lead getting into autogas. -- A host is a host from coast to & no one will talk to a host that's close........[v].(301) 56-LINUX Unless the host (that isn't close).........................pob 1433 is busy, hung or dead....................................20915-1433 |
