I bought a new line trimmer last week and wanted to start it out right so I bought the 93 octane non ethanol mixed with synthetic 2 stroke oil. That has to be the most expensive gallon of gas I've ever bought, $27 dollars and change.......

The non ethanol fuel in Ohio is almost non existent, I used to deliver fuel in and around Columbus, and we only had one customer in farm country north of Columbus that ordered it for his unbranded Mom and Pop station.

SD BOB, I saw the 90 octane fuel last time I was back in Erie at a Country Fair CITGO C store. I was going to put some in the 05 GTO, but I didn't need gas.

It certainly wakes up some horsepower too. I usually run my daily driver 96 Roadmaster LT-1 wagon on 87. I tried a couple tanks of E-free 90 and it has a very noticeable power increase, so much so that I am tempted to run mashed-pedal mode too much.

Brad, no problem buying it in Alabama.

And does Missouri even run E10 as the standard these days? Every time I used to get gas there, I didn't see the Ethanol disclaimer decals on the pumps, and didn't smell the alcohol.
