bongobobny Posted March 24, 2011 #2 Posted March 24, 2011 Here's a list of Ethanol free gas in our area...
bongobobny Posted March 24, 2011 #3 Posted March 24, 2011 I stand corrected!! There is actually one in Arcade!!! The next closest one is about 70 miles away or more... Great find Duke!!!!!!!
CaptainJoe Posted March 24, 2011 #4 Posted March 24, 2011 THATS FANTASTIC! Maybe 10 miles from home... Will have to make a trip to check out the prices... Thanks
LilBeaver Posted March 24, 2011 #9 Posted March 24, 2011 I have at least two in my town - neither of which are listed on that site.
Keemez Posted March 24, 2011 #10 Posted March 24, 2011 How many of these stations are selling all grades (reg/mid/premo) as ethanol free? The one nearest me only has premium as ethanol free, which makes a bigger dent in the wallet (so I just run regular 87 instead ).

The one nearest me only has premium as ethanol free, which makes a bigger dent in the wallet (so I just run regular 87 instead ). That is a good question. The two by me that [claim to] sell ethanol free do it on ALL grades. On the road though, I have been tricked by a few signs that advertise the no ethanol and after I pull in and read the pump I see it is only premium.
KarlS Posted March 24, 2011 #12 Posted March 24, 2011 Has anyone tried the STA-BiL Ethanol gas treatment yet? I've been thinking of trying it if the riding weather ever gets here. Below is from STA-BIL web site. Today's Ethanol Blended fuels can be hard on your fuel system and engine. Ethanol attracts moisture, which can lead to corrosion within the fuel system, octane loss, gum and varnish formation and rough running of your equipment. New STA-BIL Ethanol Treatment was designed to fight these damaging effects of Ethanol, and protect your fuel system and engine for better overall performance. STA-BIL Ethanol Treatment helps remove water, protects against corrosion, and cleans fuel injectors, carburetors, and intake valves to keep the fuel system free of gum and varnish and deposits. Perfect for use in your everyday driving vehicle, such as your car, truck, SUV or mini-van, and also great for your small gasoline powered equipment -- lawnmowers, chainsaws, weed wackers, snow blowers, snowmobiles, etc. Recommended to be used at every fill up to keep your vehicle and equipment running smoothly year-round.

Keemez Posted March 24, 2011 #14 Posted March 24, 2011 On the chart it says what OCTANE that is ethanol free. How did I miss that the first time around? Are you sure you didn't change the link?
1joeranger Posted March 25, 2011 #15 Posted March 25, 2011 One less than a mile from me which was great since the one I had been using started using ethanol gas! Thanks, you hit one out of the ballpark for me here!!!!!

Parts guy at O'reilys swears by it..MC dealer recommends star tron
flb_78 Posted March 27, 2011 #17 Posted March 27, 2011 Id like to know how the 2 stations listed in Amarillo have ethanol free gas considering all the gas in Amarillo comes from the same place off of north Western. The only way to be sure the gas is ethanol free is to have it tested.
bongobobny Posted March 27, 2011 #18 Posted March 27, 2011 I stand corrected!! There is actually one in Arcade!!! The next closest one is about 70 miles away or more... Great find Duke!!!!!!! Drove past today to find the whole place abandoned...
krispy Posted March 27, 2011 #19 Posted March 27, 2011 You guys have to remember that Sta-bil can only sell you this gas-ethanol treatment if they can convince you that ethanol blended gas is a problem. The guy at O'Reillys happens to sell Sta-bil too I'd bet. Here in MN all gas has been ethanol blended for years. No need for additiives. I do use Sta-bil in my chain saw size engines, ones that can sit un-used for long periods. I'll also put a bit in the last tank of the season on the bike. Would do the same with straight gas. You're not putting E-85 in your bike, it's probably E-10. Fill'er up and go for a ride. No worries...
Mariner Fan Posted March 27, 2011 #20 Posted March 27, 2011 Not many stations in Indiana that don't have Ethanol in their gas. I was just thinking about this the other day. I'll look around to see if I can find an Ethanol free gas station.
Condor Posted March 27, 2011 #21 Posted March 27, 2011 With the '83 I fill up when I need to.... where ever I happen to need it. Not much in California because I don't put on a lot of local miles, but when on long distance rides it doesn't make a whole lot of difference. As long as it burns, it's good by me....
etcswjoe Posted March 27, 2011 #22 Posted March 27, 2011 I have been using this site for awhile, it is updated by users so the info is only as good as the people that update it. The stations I use say it is ethanol free and the bike does perform better so without testing it I just have to take their word. If your GPS takes external inputs you can load the locations into GPS for your trip.
Freebird Posted March 27, 2011 #23 Posted March 27, 2011 Doesn't do me a lot of good. Most of them that are near me are actually marinas and not at all convenient.
