Hi all

I saw a news item yesterday regarding the introduction of Opal petrol across the board in Alice Springs. It seems that regular unleaded petrol will no longer be available no matter which brand. The news reporter interviewed several people in the motor industry in Alice and they virtually all said that they wouldn't use it in their own vehicles because of problems they have encountered with its use, ie engine damage.

Has anyone had any experience either positive or negative using this stuff? We take our 4Runner through Alice Springs each year and this is a major fill up point. A breakdown on the Tanami or anywhere else for that matter due to fuel is not ideal.
Cheers
Peter
