Why is everyone thinking that he/she wants it for something. Look at the
name that he/she used to post his question "ass".

$3.75 where I'm at. I have to drain the sumps daily, back in the old
days we just drained it onto the gravel lot, now we have to capture it
so I take it home every night and heat my garage (as well as my 20000
btu heater will do).

it's just a "sheep herd" question. allegedly there's some nascar
kerfuffle going on at the moment due to "illegal" use of "jet fuel" by
one of the competitors. i personally think it much more likely to be a
"made for media" story designed to stir general public attention [read:
ANY EXPOSURE IS GOOD EXPOSURE] since "jet fuel" is kerosene, and not
very friendly to piston engines.

try it and see what happens - i don't think you'll be impressed with the
results. and make sure you know where the drain plug on the tank is -
just a hint.

Just out of curiousity...why would it be illegal to use jet fuel in
nascar?

Not "illegal", just against the rules.

Same thing. "Illegal" means "against the rules".

I wonder if our daring OP is confusing Avgas with JP...

if he is, it's not necessarily his fault. the radio pundits were all
using the words "jet fuel", even the alleged transgressor, when
interviewed, called it "jet fuel". that's why i think it's media hype.
no professional driver that knows a wheel from a wrench would call
avgas "jet fuel". "jet fuel" is great for sound bites though.
