Bulk sales of naptha/white gas
Well the title says it all, I'm wondering if anyone still sells white gas in bulk. We used to be able to go to the co-op with a five gallon jug and fill it up. Any ideas?

Not sure but check with
a bulk fuel dealer/farm dealer. I've actually bought a 45 gal drum of it, albeit, many years ago.b

White gas, by Coleman Camp Fuel, is a common naphtha fuel in North America

How long would a bulk container of white gas store for before it goes sour?

Try one of the chemical co's, Univar I think has it in drums or are you looking for a bigger volume ?

About the same as gasoline, I think gasoline has more light ends so the white gas would actually be more stable and have a longer shelf life if sealed properly.

White gas
White gas is often used in antique engines because it has no additives to gunk things up. It stores a very long time and I'm tired of paying 20 bucks a gallon, so I figure a barrel must be a lot cheaper. I've got lots of friends who will take part of my new stash.

In addition to bulk white gas, I am also looking for bulk kerosene in Calgary.
