What ammo does a flamethrower use?

Nowhere that I can see are prices for gasoline in general,

The gasoline costs the same as it did in the real world at that time and place. i.e. highly variable. Refilling the Beattie in post WWII America could cost you 17 cents (RW dollars and not Gurps $) per gallon.

The jelling agent is extra but not expensive. Discarded animal fat could be literally free.

There's a recharge cost for the propellant gas to but that also is quite small.

I can not actually imagine a case where your PCs would be restricted in their flamethrower ammo by cost before availability or bulk/weight.
