for the first time ever I've seen a gas station that has "non-ethanol" gas listed and for some reason it's like $5 a gallon when they're selling regular gas (with ethanol) for 2.69 a gallon and I really wanna know what makes it worth almost twice the price per gallon when it's only a 10% content difference
I had to look it up, and it sounds like it lasts longer without going bad. So stuff that's used infrequently, like a generator, would probably be the use.
Marine use too
Checks out lol
Isn't that where the gas is mixed with 10% wax crayons?
Parts of their daily rations to maintain operational readiness
If you have a lawn mower, snow blower, weed wacker, or chainsaw or any other kind of small engine, non-ethanol gas is a must to prevent issues with the fuel filter, lines, carb, etc.
