no petrol!!!
mowing the lawn is going to be a bugger |
Stick a NGK PFR7B sparkplug in it - one supplied by member 99greenwagon will be best - so as to best scavenge what's left. :lol1:
Won't last long - but boy, you'll have whale of a time whizzing around the garden as if on speed! Just keep an ear out for det; you don't want the cutter breaking! |
I went to Walcot in Lincolnshire, which is a tiny village, to see a supplier. The petrol station was actually ringing up the locals to say they only had a tiny amount left and would be shutting by 13:30, so if they needed some, get down there quickly. My supplier said she'd got enough, but asked if I wanted them to stay open for me.

Just been to Tesco in scunny after my 2-10 shift. Few cars there but no great panic. Half the pumps are coned off but 95 unleaded available and diesel too. But no friggin 99 momentum for Andys Scooby :(
I'll be damned if normal is going in there! Takes three tanks of super to dilute it out and do you know how hard it is to keep a decatted TD04 off boost!! :lol1: Not 4 bloody tanks worth! I'll drive to Doncaster or Hull and make a day out of it. Usual middle earning leftie liberals driving their Vauxhall and/or diseasel shīt euro boxes supping my 99 goodness dry! Bąstards :( |

Apparantly theres no v power left at wolverhampton (tettenhall road) where I normally fill up. (no 99ron closer to me)
Now,as i'm a rational person, I expect that they will have a refill either tonight or tomorrow, but if my light comes on, and the mob has taken it all again, do I put 95 in and some octane booster to get me through? |
97 (if they have it) and keep off boost. If not, 95 and keep off boost. :D
'Self control' for a week or two - surely you have it within you? ;) |
As long as you are not bouncing the car off the redline a bit of 95 won't do any harm taking it easy
|
Haha, i'll try my best. Am I right in thinking that newage cars will pull back a bit on crap fuel anyway as a safeguard, or have I dreamt that?
I just want to give my engine a fihgting chance should it all be sold. |

I see people are queuing again today at the stations. What will people do when there really is a shortage I wonder?
Was watching bbc news this morning it seems they are trying to stoke up the hysteria even more over fuel. |
Easter strikes ruled out. Now can everyone please replace their pants and carry on?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-17558294 5t |
Massive queue today at local Tescos so big they have set up a complicated queueing system, aarrgghh :mad:
TX. |
And still they Queue. :razz::razz::razz: The general public really are morons!!!
|
I'll second that. :mad:

Heard on the news that a woman was decanting petrol from one container to another in the kitchen with the cooker on.........
Guess what? Badly burnt as a result. Feel sorry for her so I won't make any obvious comments. dl |
Yeah, they mentioned that in the BBC news item as linked in post # 136. ;)
The country (planet) is full of retarded fools and stuff. |

You learn something new every day. I love this soundbite from a labour peer Labour peer, said Maude should resign. On his Twitter account he wrote: "This woman was following advice from Govt Minister Francis Maude & ends up with 40% burns. Disgraceful. He shd resign." |

I went out Wednesday night in the end. Made two trips for mine and mrs car. Took me and hour and half and the station is only 8 miles away!
I wouldn't have minded but it was 10pm and there were at least 10 cars in front of me both trips. :rolleyes: Both our cars were near to empty though so we had no choice. I'm just glad I filled up on Wednesday. :D |

George - Let's just lie and say that fuel 'might' run out soon due to strikes that 'might' happen. Dave - Brilliant, just brilliant! I'll tell the public to fill up only if necessary, but you know what those plonkers are like. We'll make a killing! George - Bravo Dave, Bravo! :D |
What I find more amazing is that people actually listened to the Government!!! I mean who does that these days. :lol1:
