    You mean the West Addison General Store? When did they switch over? I'm pretty sure they had ethanol gas the last time I stopped there.

    Thanks for the info!

    Probably the West Addison store. The one at the intersection of 17 and Lake Street. On my last (and only) trip to T Road I filled up there and am pretty sure it was labelled as non-ethanol. I assumed that was because of the marina down the street. Of course with the bridge closed it puts that station out in the middle of nowhere.

    VP just released a non-ethanol fuel for use in small engines. It's a risk to run it on the street but how many cops are going to look in your tank

    94 octane SEF94

    Re: Non-ethanol gas -- what stations have it?

    The biggest problem with ethanol is it's driving the prices of my tequilas sky-high. Bastards are burning the agave groves & replanting with corn crops. When will this insanity end? Humans can develop things to combat the ill effects of ethanol on our engines. But what are we to do about my tequila prices?

    Yet another excellent example of why ethanol sucks.

    Pretty sure that Pratt's Store on 22A in Bridport still has non-ethanol gas too.

    Re: Non-ethanol gas -- what stations have it?

    They do realize that running ethanol gas in an engine not made for it actually makes it run worse and get worse MPG right? And now they wanna add more? Dumb-ass politicians. It's gonna end up actually hurting the environment in the long run, what with the extra energy and resources needed to make ethanol...

    Re: Non-ethanol gas -- what stations have it?

    The number of stations that have ethanol free gasoline here in TN is actually increasing quite quickly. I would say about 35 - 40% now proudly advertise ethanol free gas.

    Two major chains are Conoco and Exxon.

    Keep buying those fuel additives that somewhat minimize fuel system damage ... sucks living in VT.

    It has nothing to do with environmentalism. It's all about money. The corn/ethanol lobby has been at it for decades, but global warming was the excuse they needed to get their shit mandated. And now that's not enough for them -- they want more. And the politicians are too busy enjoying "favors" to stand up to those assholes.

    And Currently, yeah, I noticed that there were options for non-ethanol gas down south. Apparently it's becoming easier to find in the Midwest too. The number of non-ethanol stations here in Vermont had been increasing as well. So much for that.

    Re: Non-ethanol gas -- what stations have it?

    I don't mind the whole ethanol vs MBTE thing, since there are apparently concerns that MBTE (or is it MTBE? I don't remember) can cause cancer when it leaches into ground water, but every car and bike that I have owned has explicitly stated in the owners manual that >10% ethanol can be harmful to the engine. If people are having problems with 10% (which I absolutely believe), why do they think going to 15% is going to be ok? Plus, hasn't it clearly shown that the use of ethanol in fuels has driven the price of corn up significantly? I hate using 10% ethanol fuel, please don't make it 15%.

    Re: Non-ethanol gas -- what stations have it?

    out in the midwest it's all cornfields.

    Noticed a LOT of E85 at the pump. Lots of flex fuel vehicles too. My buddies love the stuff... makes their engines run cooler and more hp if tuned for it. Buddy has a switch for different maps.. one for reg gas and one for E85.

    Maybe Eth. isn't that bad.. although I do think it's doing something to the catalytic converter on my car.

    yea sucks...

    the GOGO right by my house in essex already switched over and have stickers saying, "maximum 10% ethanol"

    It's not just about MPG's either... all the lawnmowers, and other small machines that are carbed will suffer...
