93 Octane Gasoline along I-80 in western Wyoming and in Utah?
Carz01 replied to pethier's topic in General Sevens Discussion
I was pondering why the lack of high octane on the route, and think the reason 93 Octane doesn’t exist on the route is probably due to the altitude of I-80 above sea level. I-80 varies from 4,000 to 7,000 feet, so at 4,000 feet 93 octane converts to an equivalent octane of 91, and at 7,000 it’s 89.5. -

That’s true, but it does list various octane ratings available -

I use the Pure Gas site, https://www.pure-gas.org and found it pretty accurate. You can check cities along your route. -
That sums it up…..nice video. Thanks for sharing

@Slonie I had something similar occur when I changed to LED’s. I’d suggest before chasing wires to change the bulbs back to make sure the wiring is ok and everything works correctly. You might change the bulbs one at a time to test. In my case changing back to non-LED proved everything worked, correctly flashing, and it turned out to be a faulty relay.

@San Augustine I’ll get some pics uploaded…just refinishing the last of my Lotus brand wheels on the S4 to their original color, and a few other bits.

@San Augustinethanks for the detailed post about the wheels. I find it interesting that the wheels on the gpsevens car have a triangular relief where your wheels have a trapezoid shape which is what I have. I’m also running the Pirelli 185/13 tires on my S4. Great wheels!

@Exarkun1178 can you share the part number for the 10” wheel you ordered? I looked at the Moto-lita site and was unable to find it. Thanks! -

@Exarkun1178, Very cool, I’m going to look at that as an option for my 7. Please post a pic of the final install of the wheel and gauges -

I wish I had the budget for this….it would be great to have these as spares for my 1600 BDR

Not a 7, but 7esque…posted to BAT https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1980-blakely-bantam/ -
@Marek I believe UHaul rents the trailers for car moves, and they do one way.
