Guess we are lucky here cause its the same price as it use to be and other stations with the 10% ethonal in it

 

P4-gas. I like that sleeper. Very descriptive of what we are now offered. Where's that Sunoco 260 I used to get for the wife's '86 Buick Regal and my '80 Firebird?

 

Yep guess you are lucky.....(rub it in) LOL


Thanks skyeglen, but that's about what it is.

You can still get 260 @ the Drag strip & more..& about 38 yrs ago I used to pump it @ 24 cents a gal.. Ahhh memories..

 

It is definitely NOT the retailer that chooses to sell the 10% etoh, in the US anyway. It is the US EPA that mandates it in certain geographical areas. The individual distributor or retailer has absolutely no say, if the gas is destined to be sold in area X then it must be 10% EtOH, across the river in area Y plain gasoline is sold.

Remember when, 120 octane was "Super"? My dad called it airplane fuel for his 1959 Chrysler Imperial.

 

In my area, there was a Lukoil station that didn't have ethanol, but recently they changed to having the 10% ethanol. Luckily, there is a mom-and-pop owned gas station that doesn't have ethanol in it, so I've been using that station. The owner of the mom-and-pop station said that the US government may soon pass a bill mandating that 10% ethanol is required. Has anyone else heard about this bill/law/mandate? (If it is true, I hope it never passes.)

 

I've heard a lot of talk about it, and I hope it never gets passed. I prefer to use 100% gas vs. 90% gas/10% Ethanol. I'm not really sure about the details of it though. I don't really know how serious it is or if it will actually be passed. But I definitely know it's out there and it's something that's been getting talked about lately, even on this forum.

 

It will pass and have a date stamp on it.

You guys really need to not worry about it too much. It won't end the day or crash the sun. I gave up worrying about it years ago.

 

Found another gas station selling 100% gas, prices are decent too..

Chevron, so as long as they sell it, it will be my gas stop..

I hope they NEVER pass that BS bill either..

 

Are you kidding me Sleeper... the evironmental guys are foaming at the mouth with this BP crap going on.

 

So, how do you even find out if a station has E10 or pure gas if it doesn't say on the pumps? Someone said that you can get it near marina's a lot of time without any ethanol in it...
