RE: Dynamic and Kinematic Viscosity of (Aviation Gasoline)
9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Typical values:
Grades:AVGAS 100LL
Test Method Unit
Physical state liquid
Colour blue
Odour gasoline-like
Boiling point/range ASTM D 86 °C 35 to 170
Density @ 15°C ASTM D 1298 kg/m3 725
Flash point (PMC) ASTM D 93 °C - 40
Kinematic viscosity @ 20°C ASTM D 445 mm2/s 1
You can convert the kinematic visc above to whatever units you are more familar with and then calculate the absolute viscosity using that and the specific gravity.

Changes of viscosities with temperatures are required to ensure adequate flows from tanks to engines, or for the design of nozzles in injection systems.
Kindly comment.

What oil are you referring to (a mineral oil) and what temp.?
I think avgas 100LL would be less viscous than water at all working temperatures.

P99L should contact an AvGas supplier for properties.
