[HBWC]

i'm in the need of a codriver/passinger for a trip (home) to south aus
as my family are worrying as it'll be my first big trip since i broke my back.

im heading across in early march unsure exactly what date yet but i have to be in love day before the 7th for the 4x4 muster to cach up with a few mates

the return date im unsure of yet (is their any good landy sites over their)but itll be a maximum of a fortnight

so if anybody wants a trip across the nullabour your welcome to tag along.


ps i wont be useing a servo for fuel all the way their or back

[richard4u2]

you will be carrying 400 liters of fuel ??

[HBWC]

no more than dobble that 1000l plus the main tank full
at 50c a lt its worth me carting my own fuel

[p38arover]

So you're not in a Landie then? ;)

[nice1guv]

1000l plus the main tank full

1000L :eek2: Holy crap!

[miky]

1000L :eek2: Holy crap!

50 cents per litre :eek2: Holy crap!

Must be on fish'n'chip fuel.;)

[HBWC]

and no not fish and chip its transformer cooling fluid itll run without a heater

:eek:Is carrying that volume of fuel safe? How are you storing it?

Up to 1000L/1000kg can be carried without a dangerous goods qualification. Diesel is not classed as dangerous goods, but the cooling oil may be.:confused:

It isn't fuel, it is oil, and I am sure there are no restrictions on transport...

[Psimpson7]

Fair enough if its legal. Doesn't seem that sensible to me though.

What is the flashpoint, and what does the MDS say about it? Some of the transformer oils are positively evil.

I assume it is something like this:

The PCB containing oils are the hazardous ones - hopefully hbwc isn't using them for fuel :eek:

[richard4u2]

so who ever travels with you will need a bloody good blader ;)

[HBWC]

perfectly legal as long as its in aproved contaners
plus the cost of fuel versus carting my own far out way the extra fuel to cart it

[LandyAndy]
