What is the best way to find fill stations in your area? - Honda Prelude Forum

Padge · 12-17-2002, 12:05 AM

Im having a real tough time finding fill stations that arent charging $40 a fill. How do you go about finding other places, I know there have to be more then these two around me, but everyone i ask says "i dont know" or mentions the places i already go to.

These fill prices suck.

The only real way I found.. was to go to the NOS ( Holley ) website.. and click on the " refill " list... and try to find one that way... the other, more time consuming way... check the phone book for performance shops.. and call around... and personally ask them.

yea ive been calling tons of shops and one just tells me to call another.

its a vicious cycle!

Every shop in my area charges $40. I just suck it up and pay.

have you ever gone to a welding facility?

I'd check out some redreck race shops. They are usually pretty cheap and if you do there alot, they lower the price. I pay $2 lb at my place and everybody else in the area charges $3.50lb.

No, I tried a gas supplier, but they wouldn't sell me the medical grade stuff.
