George your the last person I'd expect to post this site. Ethanol got you down?

I know there are at least 3 stations in Mena that have BIG signs advertising NO ETHANOL, but their not listed on that website. Guess I should add them. Problem is, I don't know the actual legal business name. Around here they are known by the owners name, whether or not that owner has been dead for 20 years, or not, or by the location, often in proximity to the red light, as in "the northside gas station" which is no longer the northern most station.

???????????????????????????????????????

Let's see, we have;
northside-1/2 mile EAST of the red light
DJ's- under new ownership for about 30 years, but thats what everyone still calls it
Esso's- obviously outdated, but everyone know what yer talkin bout
Rocky- a place to get bait, bootlegged booze, get gassed and rent movies
Boardcamp store- not attended on weekdays, still on the honor system, make your own change, really

Well, I'll have to pay attention to the signs on the way home now :lol:

NOT a surprise, but the People's Republic of California isn't on the list. No biggie, as '98C seems to be quite happy (though my checkbook might not be) on a steady diet of 100LL

A lot of stations in both Georgia and Mississippi that are not on the list have signs saying no ethanol.

I don't believe that any mogas in California is available without ethanol. Every brand that I ever tested came out at 5%
alcohol. The nice thing about an old airplane is that it can't read. Installing the 210 HP, IO-360 continental, didn't improve its reading ability at all. God love it, it didn't even know that I was feeding it 87 octane mogas laced with moonshine.
