Unhappy Who sells Race Gas in San Diego County?

I searched and I checked some of the listings in Chebostos post and most of them are not around anymore (San Diego County ones anyways). Looking for some race gas. Unleaded preferrably.

Mia, try the little gas station on the corner of Mollison Ave. and Interstate 8. in El Cajon and maybe Fibertech in Santee on Prospect Ave.and Johnsons Bug Machine in Santee on Mission Gorge Rd.

So the question of the year...would running 5 gallons od 116 leaded kill the O2 sensors if only done once? How bout 10 gallons...Is running unleaded 100 octance absolutely the only way?

No, running leaded fuel occasionally, will not kill the 02 sensor for quite a while. (we do it all the time) 5 gallons....10 gallons.....16 gallons....done it.
It's cool to do for a little while, but not all the time, (obviously)

Yeah I guess...I'm just a scurred b!tch. O2 sensors are expensive. But I heard that they sell 116 leaded on the pump for $5 at some station on MOllison.

You can run quite a bit of leaded gas before you kill an O2, especially when you're mixing it with unleaded.

Yeah its something like that maybe $5 something. You shouldn't have a problem with the 02 sensors, unless you ran it all the time.
