I was with a co-worker who didnt watch the gas gauge, and ran out of fuel in a barren part of west Texas. This kind of fuel didnt burn well, was smoky, but got us to a service station. Normally those naphthas have flash points of 150-200F, so they are not as dangerous as gasoline to carry in the car. |
