[lyteline]

Non ethanol stations are getting scarce.Are there still any in the southern tier or Ithaca area.Thanks very much...Zeke & Cyn(Strike 3)

[jennings]

there is one in Ovid, it is located on route 96 between Ovid and Interlaken. It is called Sunny happy landing.

The marina i keep my boat at is still using and will keep using non-ethanol, they know its pointless, because boats WONT like the ethanol.

Jennings....might that be just before the turnoff for DEANS COVE when heading north?????Thanks....Zeke & Cyn

[ERABBIT]

Zeke last fall pumps #1 and #2 at Fast Trac in Ovid were Non ethanol all the rest had E10.

[lyteline]

Thank you............

[dukhnter8]

I know in my area we have kwik fill which don't have ethanol and is american gas.

[lyteline]

Thanks Dkh8 ....We have Kwikfils here but they all have ethanol.The marinas will be selling nonethanol in our area.Might also be a Sunaco station in Owego NY too.....Zeke & Cyn(Strike 3)

Zeke last fall pumps #1 and #2 at Fast Trac in Ovid were Non ethanol all the rest had E10.

Dons marina will have it as long as they can get it supplied. Thats what Neil told me.

Ya its 50 cents more a gallon but what the heck, right?

I got tired of spilin gas over everything even with a gas buddy. I'll just pay the extra.

There is an additive that will take care of the ethanol problem if you can't get gas without it.

[yukonstu]

stabil just came out with a additive for the ethanol problem

[Splitshot115]

Was given a bottle of treatment by a friend that works for an oil company. they use

this in all the gas fleet vehicles. It's called Octaplus Gasoline Treatment By Enertech Labs. Says on the bottle it provides high detergency/Water dispersion/fuel stability

and prevents Phase seperation/improves performance/raises fuel economy/reduces emissions. He said it's a little pricey but if it works who cares.

I just order 1500 gallons for my business. I run it strictly for "non-highway" applications. (excavating/landscaping equipment). My supplier said this was the last order for non-ethanol. It was explained to me that once the suppliers are out -that's it. I asked about Marina applications and again- once it's gone its gone.

i personally havent had any ill effects from e 10 gas boat sat from nov till last week turn key and it started(had to replace points ) unrelated to gas tho....

[OldTex]

Zeke...Check out that Gulf on north side of Interlaken....I ordered new tires for the boat trailer ......and after installation, put $100 of gas in the boat.......It was non ehtenol.........but that was in summer of 07.......Im leaving here on the 21st...That will give me a week to get her seaworthy and a day at Otsego in Cooperstown to check her out and maybe get lucky with some early browns...May 1 st I can get in my summer digs....Its been a looooooong winter........Fred

[lyteline]

Hello Fred,great to hear from you.That gas station is Happy Landing.Fishing has been very good @ the south end of the lake.....lots of big browns.Unfortunately,we aren't the ones catching them.Have a safe trip back and be sure to tell Fred we said hi.......Take care.....Zeke & Cyn(Strike 3)

[lyteline]

I just called Happy Landing and they have changed to E-10.

[MikeyP]

Non ethanol gas is almost impossible to find now and I'm sure even the marinas will have to go with it shortly too. Just plan on buying the neutralizing additives that take care of the phase separation.

[ERABBIT]

The biggest problem I had was junk in my inline fuel filter. The first year with the E10 I changed it out three or four times. I then started and still add StarTron to each fill up and it's been OK since. Stabil also makes a E10 deal in both the marine grade and regular brand also. If I had know this I would have just used that because it's always been great before for me on over the winter storage.

[Missdemeanor]

Last year I fried a valve on my port engine Both my engines have been babied since the boat has been new (I'm the original owner). My mechanic said more than likely it was the crap gas we all have to deal with. He said his business has been booming with all the engine repairs from this fuel.

2k for new rings, springs , valve job and good going over. You can bet that I'll being putting the ethanol treatment in my tanks every fill up. That stuff is expensive but its worth it in the long run. Good luck this season and tight lines.

[MikeyP]

I wonder what's going to happen if they start making us go to a 15% blend at some point? I heard it's coming and they all have deaf ears when it comes to boaters.

[fishman08]

some marinas have gone to the valvetech gas, isn't that suppose to ge made special for marine engines?

[water gremlin]

I live in Locke and Hewett Brothers has non ethanol gas.. Im not sure but I believe its cash only and its around $3.05

[FX]

Kwik Fil around the Rochester area still has non-ethanol. I have not heard when or if they will be switching over.
