nah, im serious... works good as a fire starter... the petrol goes bang, gets things going, the diesiel burns enough to heat the sump oil to get that going... especially good to put on tyres when you burn them

fill up as many bottles of it as you can, get on the good side of a courier, have it sent Kirribilli house or ATO your nearest city, and claim GST on it for end June 30.

If your in Melbourne bring it down to my work.
We reblend industrial waste chemicals (paints, oils, solvents etc) into a fuel product thats used for a cement kiln.
We get off street customers coming in all the time - painters, mechanics, etc but we charge a price per litre.
Geocycle (division of Cement Australia) 92 Ordish Road Dandenong South.
If you ask for me (Frank) I'm the Production Manager so I'll look after you ;)
Or give me a ring 8792-5423 (but in 2 weeks on a/leave now).
I just luv my "clacker Jabber"
