?? About octane for mowers and chain saw

[fried1765]

I'd start looking closer in that less than 100 mile radius. I'd ask at coop locations and campgrounds. And rec vehicle and atv dealers. Chain station stores like Casey's or grocery stores that sell gas. Farm supply chains that has gas may offer it. Car clubs that display older cars etc..

If you use the pure gas website, you are only seeing part of the total. Unless the state has banned it's sale which I don't believe it can, there has to be an approved market for "off road" gasoline as some call it. . . Without it being airplane fuel.

Just the other day I ran into a station that sells 2 non-ethanol choices and only 1 ethanol choice.

The hardest state in the country to find non-ethanol gas "should be" Iowa and yet, even there you'll find lots of outlet choices.

Jmho

As previously stated: It is against the law in Massachusetts to dispense non ethanol gas from a pump (except at airports).
Coop locations, campgrounds, rec.vehicle and atv dealers, chain stores, or grocery stores, and farm supply stores, and car clubs, also CANNOT SELL NON ETHANOL GAS DISPENSED FROM A PUMP, per Ma. law.
I know it is difficult for some of you guys to comprehend, (and I hate it) but it is the LAW!

Really ?
Please give me a few names/locations that are selling ethanol free gas dispensed at the pump, in Eastern Ma.
The link you sent does NOT show ANY....because, though I understand it is difficult to believe,.... it is ILLEGAL to sell pump dispensed non ethanol gas in MA. !!!
5 gal. cans of non ethanol gas are apparently available at a FEW locations at .... $15 per gal.
A 75 mile drive (150 RT) to buy a 5 gal. can of non ethanol gas for $75?
Not for me!
5 gal. of 100LL is approximately $30 at the local airport, and I still must drive 14 miles (28 RT).

All the vp racing 94 is canned gas sold over the counter , I have been to some of those places

Fried,

It's very difficult for me to imagine any state could effectively damage personal property by limiting access to non-ethanol gas for cars made prior to 1990. Vehicles made prior to then "may be able" to run e10 but their components are not made for it and anything prior to 1982 can not safely even operate on e10. In addition, selling "canned" e0 fuel is not only dangerous storage but at the prices you mention it would be considered price fixing. Either situation would be complete cause for validation lawsuits.

So if MA does not provide reasonable options to acquire e0 gasoline, how do warranties get handled or car collectors have any use or operation of their vehicles? My 1979 Toyota Supra would be eaten from the inside out with e10.

And how would legislators stay elected?

That's amazing. With so many listed and close to all the water, I thought it must be sold in marinas at least. I wonder if boaters there are forced to use E fuel or if most are fueling from out of state.

PLAIN & SIMPLE !!
It is illegal to dispense non ethanol fuel from a pump (with aviation exception) in Massachusetts!

No matter how many internet listings are given, those locations simply cannot violate the law.
If they do sell non ethanol gas it MUST be in 5 gal. sealed cans!
In my case, even the closest of those to me, is over a 100 mile round trip, and the gas is $15 per gal.

I give up!
Apparently, many here cannot accept facts.
