From Radisson to Caniapiscau you will cross 2 gas stations. The junction with the Transtaiga Road is 78 south of Radisson on the James Bay Road. Then on the transtaiga road the first gas station is at km 286, and the other one is at km 358. So if you gas up at km 358, and go to the end at km 666 and back, you have to drive 616 km between 2 gas stations. I normally do about 600km with a ful tank, but I found that you can fit much more gas in a tank than you do normally after it first stops. After 616 km it was not totally empty, I think i could've continued to km 258, but didn't want to gamble it! I actually brought a spare 5-gallon and I didn't have to use it!
Thanks a lot guys for such a great response!
