OK, it was time to purge my 29 tudor of crap gas before winter storage. So I drove 20 minutes with my two 6 gallon containers to the nearest place that sells ethanol free gas. One hundred and twenty dollars later (That is the UK part.) I made my way home with my precious liquid cargo.

I drained the crap gas from my tudor and topped off the tank with 100% real gas, and since this is the first time I have topped it off, I inspected the gas gauge. It doesn't leak!

Then it was time for a nice 30 minute drive to purge any remaining crap gas from the fuel system. It was a beautiful day for the drive.

The only negative (other than the price) is that now that my tudor is ready for winter it is time to stop playing, and get on with the winter restoration projects.
