Doing the simplest conversion---168.3/250.0--= sp.gr.of 0.6732..
0.6732X 8.34(#/gal for h2o)= 5.614 #/gal for Avgas--agreeing with
you--but isn't right---I'm gonna weigh things again--might have been off
on my tare weight. Jerry

I don't keep avgas at my house. However....
Weighing 250 cc of 60 degree F. mogas = 190 grams
Specific gravity = 190/250cc = 0.76
0.76 x 8.34 = 6.3384....
MOGAS = 6.3384 lb/gal @ 60 degrees F.
More than close enough for GW Bush gov't work!
