non-ethanol gasoline locations

[graygun]

Is there a locator site? I keep getting one bogus link after another.

You can look it up by town/city or use the map. Great website! I use nothing but non-ethanol gas around here, and traveling when I can.

Cholo; Thanks for the web site.

This site is up to date for my area. We have some off-the-beaten-path vendors of non-ethanol gasoline, and every one is on this list.

I drove past a station on the backroads to Chickamauga Battlefield Park. On the way back I checked out the no ethanol gas station that's about 4 miles from my house. It was $2.049 for regular--cheaper than ethanol at the other stations. The website I posted has it listed as only premium. I saw all their gas in non ethanol. I'm a member of that website and will look tomorrow and change it when verified, again.

I'll do my part in sticking it to the gov't that pushes the ethanol BS on us. The ethanol corn farmers can pound sand! :x

The closest place to me is a 20 mile round trip. I doubt that I can justify the saving difference in MPG to go there.

Good resource. My 2010 F150 SuperCrew 4X4, 5.4 Triton runs it's best with no-corn syrup gasoline.

 

[graygun]

I want it for some small engines. Thanks.

 

[Taterman]

Great link! Surprisingly, there's one about 5 miles away. I'll make it a point to go there when possible.

Thank you for posting that site. I found a place much nearer my house than I've previously used.

Both of our local Walmarts have remolded the gas stations. Both of them are now selling ethanol-free gasoline.

Using it for better fuel mileage would be second on the list for me.

I worked in a motorcycle repair shop for several months right after I retired 2 years ago. The bulk of the work I did was trying to save carburetors that had had been setting with ethanol gas in them for a for aprox. 9 months or longer. I've seen some that will get gummed up in just 3 or 4 months. If a carb had ethanol in it for a couple years or more, it was usually completely destroyed & had to be replaced.
The closest place that I saw for me to get ethanol free is about a 70 mile round trip. Thinking it might be worth the trip with a few jugs just to be able to have some on hand for small engines.

There's only one in this area of well over a million. The fed losers forced-in the E-10 about 11 years back.

They missed one in Hutchinson---I'll have to add it. My Piaggio scooter requires premium gas, and I put in ethanol-free, just to be safe. No problems in 3 years. I did find that I needed to purge the gas from the hose before filling my little tank, otherwise I got a slug of whatever had been pumped before. I put a half-gallon in my truck, then fill the 2-gallon container for the scooter.

I primarily use it in my '67 Honda CB77 (Super Hawk for those that remember). I incorporate the regular gas with Seafoam in my Valkyrie at end-of-season. Sure don't want to replace/rebuild a 6 pack of carbs.

I guess I've been lucky because I haven't had any problems with ethanaol gas in my outboard and small motors. I did notice the decreased mph in vehicles though was about 10% when the state mandated ethanol in most areas. I also use a fuel preservative in any gas that may set for a while (not sta-bil).

graygun--Walmart in Boerne has non-ethanol gas---check your local store.

Same here in Michigan. They give you the option of ethanol and non-ethanol. I purchase the non-ethanol for my old 1949 tractor, lawn mower and boat motors.

Murphy's in Universal City has it and is nearby.

I put Sea Foam in to help with that.

Wow! The 305 Super Hawk was a nifty machine! I haven't seen one in 45+ years. Nice compact bike with a good solid OHC engine. Is it original?

Best regards, Pete

maybe a few degrees of original post but..none that I see in Tucson. Wonder about 100LL avgas in my old kick start HD. Had a rebuild 10 yrs ago so maybe they put in harder valve seats (?) if that is what it needs not hold up

I didn't do a "restore" I did a "refresh". I went with the factory original blue, added original '60s BUCO saddlebags and BUCO fairing.
