Posted November 15, 201014 yr comment_335990 Here is a link to website that keeps a constantly updated list of E0 (Ethanol-free gasoline) stations in the United States. While most of us run E10 (it's by far the most widely available gas), I know that many of those would prefer to run E0.Pure-gas.org - Ethanol-free gasoline locationsI don't want to get into an argument over ethanol (E0/10/15/85) as a fuel, I merely wanted to bring this resource to everyone's attention. Please don't use this thread to wizz and moan about your position on the issue.I have no affiliation with this website, and it is non-commercial.

November 15, 201014 yr comment_335994 Hmm. I've not had any problems with E10 in my 240Z, but one of the Eugene stations selling "The Clear" (as they call it around here) is right on my way to work. Maybe I'll give it a try. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37673-ethanol-free-gasoline-locations/#findComment-335994 Share on other sites More sharing options...

November 15, 201014 yr comment_336013 I'll NEVER used E10 in my car again after reading some of the FACTS online about Lack of power, LOSS of power Loss of MPG, corroding parts, deteriating lines and parts, etc, etc.This is just one of the hundreds of reports stating how Ethanol is a BIG "Fail"There are more links in the link below....http://chemicallygreen.com/inconvient-truth-about-ethanol/ Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37673-ethanol-free-gasoline-locations/#findComment-336013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 15, 201014 yr comment_336025 Of course, nothing in CaliforniaNJ as well. The good news is that there is a station 25 miles West of me in PA. I think I'll get the tank low and go top-off with "good gas" for winter storage.

November 16, 201014 yr comment_336072 Here is one of the many by me. Actually, there are 4 in my town of 12000 people and a total of about 15 within 20 miles.Check out the notes on this one:http://pure-gas.org/station?station_id=2752Can I run that in the Z? Any advantages to it or will it burn up my top end?John Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37673-ethanol-free-gasoline-locations/#findComment-336072 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 16, 201014 yr comment_336080 Contrary to popular belief, higher octane fuels burn slower then lower octane fuels.Unless you have hi compression pistons or forced induction, the 110 wont net you any additional HP. It will have better throttle response. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37673-ethanol-free-gasoline-locations/#findComment-336080 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 16, 201014 yr comment_336087 Hmm. I've not had any problems with E10 in my 240Z, but one of the Eugene stations selling "The Clear" (as they call it around here) is right on my way to work. Maybe I'll give it a try.As I understand things in Oregon, E10 has been mandated by law for all gasoline retailers since 2008. You're getting corn in your gas whether you want it or not! Is this "Clear" sold behind the station or out in the open?http://www.salem-news.com/articles/january142008/ethanol_11408.php Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37673-ethanol-free-gasoline-locations/#findComment-336087 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 16, 201014 yr comment_336093 Yes, E10 is mandated in Oregon, but boats, some off-road vehicles and classic cars (25+ years old, IIRC) are allowed to buy non-ethanol fuel if they can find and afford it.

November 19, 201014 yr comment_336453 "Even an analysis by the EPA found that current ethanol production techniques actually result in higher emissions of greenhouse gases than refining and burning ordinary gasoline."The full story here:http://reason.com/archives/2010/11/16/congress-let-ethanol-subsidies Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/37673-ethanol-free-gasoline-locations/#findComment-336453 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 20, 201014 yr comment_336515 I believe gasoline without ethanol is more stable, and would be preferable if you store your car for extended periods of time. Ethanol absorbs moisture.
