Australian road trip basics: Should you carry spare fuel?

from AutoExpert · host John Cadogan

It is 2696km by road from Adelaide to Perth in Australia (via the Nullabor Plain). That's if you go the 'quick' way. It's up to 190km between fuel stops,  in some very remote country. Here, in this Q&A report, one loyal viewer asks me if it's a good idea to carry spare fuel for the trip. Pro tip: it's really not, but there are some other important factors that you should consider if you want to get there with minimal drama. 12-volt compressor:  https://tinyurl.com/cwabsdbm Tyre plug kit: https://tinyurl.com/vxd6af8v Tyre gauge: https://tinyurl.com/ywpw3b6m Help support my independent reporting, securely, via Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=54778969  Save thousands on any new car (Australia-only): https://autoexpert.com.au/contact  AutoExpert discount roadside assistance package: https://247roadservices.com.au/autoex...  Did you like this report?
