Here's a list but it is not gospel, you will still want to call around and verify the best you can :

Use a high quality water separating fuel filter.


Thanks for the link. I just confirmed the Spirit station on the corner of 35th and 95th in North Seattle has E-0. $3.99 for regular. The attendant told me there is a guy who comes in and buys 400 bucks worth for use in ultralight aircraft.

Drifter:

Pacific Pride on Boone St in Aberdeen is listed as having E-0.

The Oly Fast Fuel is credit card only. It hasn't been over $4.00 that I know of.

The Cenex in Chehalis is cash or credit card during business hours, but is credit card only after hours and week-ends. None of them have been over $4.00 as of the last time I was there. This station is very handy any time driving south thru Chehalis area.

I get my E0 fuel at the fuel farm in Auburn on C street. About the same price as E10 fuel.

The key to having E-0 fuel around is ....... buying it! As with anything it's all about supply and demand. If there are only a few folks buying it for their toys there's not going to be enough demand for the stations to have it taking up space and they are going to fold to the pressure of switching the pumps to E-10. You need to fill all your cans, boats and other toys along with your car and encourage your friends to do the same. I've never found it to be too much more then E-10 so an extra .05 cents +/- per gallon in the Toiletta's 13 gallon tank once in a while isn't sqwat to worry about. Even the 33 gallon tank of my Chev doesn't add up to that much more. It hurts the wallet no matter which one you get so support the stations that help you.

In the Toiletta, a 4 cyl., I can definitely see a difference. In the Chev , a V-8, not so much.

Ron:

Have the card for for the Southside station but very spendie for gas there......for sure on my 2011 Toyato Avalon, the better gas increases the gas mileage by about 3+ mpg....no price at the pump, so don't know cost until you get billing. I pre-pay but don't know if I can justify the additional cost in the car......boat, lawn mower, chairsaw, etc. get this gas......but still add stabil to the gas....

Called the station in Olympia, only on the mid grade but you can use your credit card....and they have price on the pumps.....lady said any credit card could be used but they gave a discount for thier cards....so I had them send. That station is in the area of the "Farmers market"....I looked for it but was off by a few blocks....

I like "gas, gas"....hate the idea of corn going for gas....drives the cost of beef, cereals, etc. up, up, up.....prices are high enough!!!!

I erred. The Chehalis Cenex is left on NW State St. just before the second set of RR tracks. It was around 3.94 today. It is behind the 76 station.

My boat, moored at Elochoman Marina, Cathlamet. Just paid $4.34gal for 30gal OUCH! Was $4.20 the last time I refueled?

I agree with M, about 10% greater range from E-0 gasoline.

For you Kitsap Peninsulallites: The new owners of Al's Grocery in Olalla down where the Polar Bears jump are pumping e-free gas! I'll gladly pay 'em a little more for that. Support the local guys thumbs

Good to know NoFish, I'm not far from there.

Pt Defiance Boathouse tells me they still have E-0 so I've gone through better than two grand of it in the last couple months.

If you're on the water chasing the non-existant kings of MA-11, then fill er up there!
