Hint - on long trips when you need to use remote fuel stops carry a bottle of octane boost
Fact - octane rating deteriorates over time, I have been told petrol is ok for at least 6 months.

hmm this is interesting about octane count decreasing over time... Perhaps this could be put down to evaporation/poor storage. In a completely closed system, the chemical composition/RON should technically stay the same... Haha į guess this is the dodgy fuel storage on the nullaboor though - there's probably n-heptene somehow seeping into the tanks.
Think i'll bring some booster NeXT time
