There are also a few apps, but I believe most of them use the data from that website.

I've used that site. SO Cal Nitro. It's not a regular gas station. I'm looking for a regular gas station located near me that I can drive up and fill up. I was hoping someone local knows of a place.

Drives me crazy seeing all the ethanol free stations around me selling... 87 and 89. Ethanol free will do me no good if I have to pull timing.

I think there are specific regulations in California on where ethanol free gas can be sold. In areas where the population is above a certain limit it's not allowed. Also has to meet the CARB regulations as well. Most of the ethanol free is not reformulated to do that. If you look on the pure-gas site you will see that only a few places in California have it. None in the major population centers.

VP Racing Fuels advertises "Ethanol Free" gasoline in five-gallon pails for $105. You have buy it through a distributor. They can prolly blend you up anything you want for a price. I doubt you'll ever fine ethanol free gas at a pump in California. And you prolly ought not get caught with any in your tank on a public road.

Try a Marina.

All aviation fuel is ethanol free. Find a small airport and buy some. It's 100 octane and contains lead. It smells so good when your car zooms by!

Aviation gas may have the octane, and lots of stabilizers but it really formulated for aircraft that have a redline of 2,500 RPM and often fly at 10,000 to 15,000 feet.

And it is over 6 bucks a gallon here. Many private aircraft can sit for 6 to 12 months months and the gas does no go stale.

If you still have a cat, it will destroy the cat in short order.

The nozzle is huge, as we often pump in 100+ gallons into our airplane. The nozzle will not fit in a car from the 1960s on.

E25 is the law in Brazil - 75% gasoline & 25% Ethanol

May 2019, the Trump administration announced a change to extend sales of E15 gasoline year-round, following an election pledge to U.S. corn farmers.

Used to be 5.8%, 2016 then 10% now 15%.

The policy sucks, but hey this is OT not PARF.

Racing fuel is $20 a gallon. Av fuel is 6-7 and old motors like lead anyway. Personally I just cut it into the non eth 67 I have here. Here's the caveat for av fuel; find an uncontrolled field and call ahead. If they ask you're just bench testing a Rotax for a kit plane.
