Switcraft is also a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will soon have a good stock in the tank if you buy 10 litres daily. As for cost, just get some spare Jerry cans to avoid the same happening again.Had a similar situation stuck amongst stoppages last year when wife had knee replaced. Just used a Tesco and swallowed the extra cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathanA Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Might be eworth trying a hire shop like HSS they often sell 20 litres drums of red for plant. just don't tell em it's for a boat at best it will confuse them at worst they won't sell you any.

pearley Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Last time I bought diesel at Apperley Bridge/CV Marine we had a heated discussion about only selling at 60/40. Was 5 years ago so may have changed their stance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
