If this is a vote ADD me to the Ethanol detractors .
15 % ethanol adds to corrosion and rubber deterioration especially in engines that are run infrequently .
I almost always run 100 % gas in my boat .
My cardlock operator has offered NON ETHANOL PREMIUM for a decade or more and it is a 10-15% premium over 85 /15 .
I only buy 85 /15 on the water or in a place where I have no choice .
I added a large filter for water removal in the boat .
85/15 causes condensation in boat fuel tanks.
The science is there .
Another good reason to own a diesel pickup .
