Quote from the Owner's Manual:

Some gasoline today is blended with
oxygenates such as ethanol or
MTBE. Your vehicle is designed to
operate on oxygenated gasoline
containing up to 10% ethanol by
volume and up to 15%MTBE by
volume. Do not use gasoline
containing methanol.

Question: Would there be a benefit from using non ethanol gasoline, or should I just use gasoline containing ethanol??

 

I think most gas now has some percentage of ethanol that comes out of a pump. I always use shell or 76 and they have little stickers on the pump saying ethanol blend but no more then 10%.

 

0% ethanol will get better gas mileage.

What stations sell 0%

 

I noticed when I ran non oxygenated fuel from the last track day, that it ran just about 1 point richer on my wideband then normal oxygenated fuel IE 12afr to 13. This would coincide with the principal of the oxygenated fuel, which is to emit less hydrocarbons in the air. Leaner running engines do that.

 

If you convert it to run on 85% ethanol instead it will have benefits

 

It's a mom and pop that sells power equipment by my house, and they also sell gas OH!!! It's a full service station too! Haven't seen that in 20 years! Looks like I found my new station, thanks for the replies.

 

I've seen a few. WAWA sells a lower ethanol, not sure if 0% but its only up to 89 or 91 octane.

 

We have multiple stations that sell various octanes of E0 or what most call marine fuel as boat owners don't want any ethanol in their fuel. It is normally at a $1 minimum premium over the E15 fuel.
