geordieb Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Can anyone tell me where I can get Benzyne 91 in Pattaya. The places I used to buy it from all seem to have stopped selling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadman Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Looks like its being phased out, couldn't find anywhere in pattaya yesterday. Is 95 gasohol better than 91? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordieb Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 What can be used as a substitute for Benzyne 91? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurwait Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 It's being phased out by the end of march. many brands already don't have it. Unless the government change their minds again ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 What can be used as a substitute for Benzyne 91? How about benzine 95 @ 49 + baht per liter. At some stations the old 91 pump has a sticker over it now offering 95 instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I've heard that the Shell station on South Pattaya Rd has benzine 95 also I know for sure that the PT garage in Na Jomtien ( near the Ambasador hotel ) has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMGImInPattaya Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Pure benzine (gasoline for Americans), as has been mentioned, is being phased out, and many stations no longer stock it. An acceptable alternative for any vehicle is gasohol 91 [octane] or 95. These two fuels are a blend of benzine and 10% ethanol ("E10"). Unless you vehicle is a newer flex-fuel compatible one, you should not run on any fuel with an higher ethanol content, i.e., E20 or E85. This issue has been extensively discussed in the auto forum recently so just look-up some of the recent posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClareQuilty Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I've heard that Benzine may still be available in the 95 version. Is this possible? I drive a 30 year old Toyota Corolla that I suspect will be harmed if I put gasohol in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSJ Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I don't know if it's available still, but Avgas used to be a great fuel to use in our old speedway cars. The local fuel agent used to drop off a 44 gallon drum a few days after we had rung him. Of course that's going back 30 plus years in Oz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the 1960s and 1970s a fuel called National Benzole was available in the UK. It's selling point was it had 10% ethanol for a "cleaner engine". I used to put it in my old 1961 Triumph 350cc motorbike. Ran fine. Never had any problems Having said that I have just had to have my BMW 1200C here repaired because something has turned all the fuel pipes in my tank to jelly blocking up the fuel filter. I used to put gasohol95 in it. After the repair I reverted to benzine91 (if only I could get benzine95 in Kan) but that has now all but dried up. So I am back with gasohol95 with my fingers crossed.
