Gasoline shortage:(

iamkit · 11-03-2012, 10:08 PM

Would it be too late if I leave brooklyn now to go to queens for gas? im at a quarter tank..

Bleep · 11-03-2012, 10:51 PM

Quarter tank is easily 50+ miles if you don't have a lead foot so yeah should be fine.

Bergen County rt17 is a nightmare. Lines are endless. I will venture out tomorrow which is an " Even " day. Wish everyone good luck, and to those who suffered major loss, our prayers are with you.

pepsih · 11-04-2012, 03:04 AM

i suggest you guys to go to sonomax in brooklyn. in greepoint ave. and mcguiness blvd.

kashanova · 11-04-2012, 03:25 AM

just came back from a Citgo gas station, waited for an hour but had to fill up with 87

I feel dirty

badfish718 · 11-04-2012, 03:27 AM

10 minutes from the Outerbridge....there's an Exxon and a Sunoco on Route 18 just before the Englishtown exit. I hit the Exxon and waited about 5 minutes, filled up 93oct and filled up 2 containers 87 for the lady's car back home. By the time I was done changing maps back to Stage 2+ there was no line at the Exxon and only 5 or 6 cars at the Sunoco, right about 1am.

Also got word that the BP on route 1 near Open Road BMW had no line tonight

Watch your car guys for people syphoning gas. In my old neighborhood in Newark (south ward) someone got caught syphoning gas from a car.. owner caught him, 3 shots killed him.

Damn I would have shot him too but damn not to kill the person. That's just crazy.

Bleep · 11-04-2012, 11:13 AM

BAL278 · 11-04-2012, 12:45 PM

Drove to Sloatsburg service station off the NY thruway.. Filled up with 93.. Luckily our cars have the tank on the right side so only waited 15 minutes.. Just takes me 15-20 miles to get back home

There's anti-siphoning device in the filler neck (plastic ball), you can't just sneak the hose down in the tank easily.

Local Autozones are out of octane boosters and gas canisters.

Bagelfast · 11-04-2012, 01:46 PM

Hey guys, my friend still has a few cans of 5 gallons 93 left.. he is selling them for 50 since there such long god damn lines in BK, and no1 has 93 octane left. Today is a disaster. IF anyone wants, pm me and ill give u is contact info.

themyst · 11-04-2012, 02:09 PM

Just got 10 gallons of 87 in two canisters. I'm just gonna wait til the workweek starts and fill up with 93 octane again in CT.

3 hours in line to get 10 gallons of gas, damn. I wish I didn't have a job

There is always a way. Snake a larger tube down to the bottom of the tank and then within that tube snake a hose like the meth Line into that hose and siphon the smaller hose inside and it works like a charm. You guys didn't hear it from me how to siphon gas with newer cars!

advans · 11-04-2012, 04:33 PM

yeah, the lines in brooklyn are crazy. Filled up my 550 and M3, and hopefully this can last me for atleast another week!

If you guys noticed, some people are taking advantage of this. Theres people with a crap load of canisters, filling up (no car) just to sell to people. Getting out of control.
