Measuring diesel/petrol specific gravity.

Hi
I am, I hope, about to buy another deuce. I have been offered an M109.
A while back someone kindly did a graph to show how the gravity of petrol/diesel mix could give the proportion of the two fuels in that mix.
Unfortunately, I am having terrible problems buying a hydrometer to cover that specific range of gravities.
Please can anyone point me in the right direction?
I just missed one on ebay and Google gives a lot of matches!!
Thanks,
Martin

I believe the graph(s) were posted on this site a couple of years ago, do a search using different keywords......

You can make the measurements yourself if you have an accurate scale. Practical for a few mixes anyway.

It was me that posted the graphs, glad somebody found them useful. I got two hydrometers from Brannans in Cleator Moor Cumbria for £20, their details are on the ,net
Any problems PM me.
Dave.
