Not that it has much to do with op but the Dude that runs the Haast gassy shifted my bike while I was inside paying in March to make way for a car. Couldn't work out why I was pissed off with him moving it and my helmet, put my helmet on the damp ground and stones.Originally Posted by Flip

That's a crappy tank range but you will make it. Fill at Fox and top up at Haast. That should then get you to Wanaka, or before then Hawea by the lake has a gas station (I believe so, but we never bother looking when we fly by)
Prepare for a price shock when you get down the deep south West Coast. The Coasters take that saying, black gold, to a new level.

There is also fuel at Makarora between Haast and Hawea, but it is the most expensive in the country. Haast does have a card machine but quite often wont work, just walk over to the pub and drag the owner out if that happens, just be prepared to pay extra. There is a comprehensive list of servos on this site somewhere too.
