Pump gas is just fine. Avoid the Ethanol- gasoline mix. If you cannot buy Ethanol free gasoline in your local stations, Nearly all areas have bulk plants that usually only sell 3 grades of pure gasoline- buy fuel there. I NEVER run ethanol mix in anything I own-lawnmower-to my truck-car-or the r-c car. Also, If you find a gas station that sells -advertises ethonal freegasin one grade only but the gas pump has only one fuel hose-nozzle, understand that if the guy-gal that bought gas before you did not buy the good gas, the fuel you get is going to be the fuel they bought -- from the fuel nozzle back two where ever the gas manafold is- the device that switches grades of fuel- see- if you are buying one gallon of gas- you will only get what was bought ahead of you- for at least the first 1/2 to 3/4 of a gallon. Buy five gallons- put two or three in your car- then fill your gallon r-c gas can- 91-92 octane is fine for our cars, as in any engine, too much octane hurts top end power- it burns too slow. - Oil? thats like -opening a can o worms- run a known quality oil and stick to it.

all our pumps say they contain up to 10% ethanol

most all cities have bulk plants. this is where to find the non ethanol gasoline, in washington state for example, most of the state patrol -state trucks- private contractors- buy the gas at bulk plants. ethanol can only be transported on a tanker truck or rail road tanker, it cannot be put into the nations underground pipeing system- too corosive, and dissolves the buffer that seperates the fuels we use. its a sandwich for lack of a better discription fuel oil-buffer-desel -buffer- gasoline-buffer- ect-ect- the ecpetion is natural gas. it has to have it own system of pipes. soo what i am saying is all bulk plants have pure gasoline- ya just need to cruse the yellow pages or talk to people who race - they will direct you to the closest bulk plant. pardon the spelling- it is almost understandable!!

more ethonal facts

In 2009, 15% of the nations corn crop made ethonal. 2010-25%. it takes about 150 liters of water to make 1 gallon of ethanol. all in all ethanol costs about 6-7 dollars to make-fertelizer- machines to plant-harvese-ect-ect- guess who pays- the tax payers- its called subsdies. no its not a good deal at all. it Will be phased out eventually when people understand. Etanol is 113 octane, a real car will run like a scalded dog on this stuff. In Brazil the popular car is a ford. it has 2 fuel tanks- 1 small tank that holds gasoline to start a cold motor- as the motor comes up to tempeture it automatickly switches to pure ethonal. the ideal fuel-air ratio for gasoline is about 14-1. ethanol is 6-1 no milage but the run like a bat outta hell. Brazil makes there ethonal mostly from sugar cane. agan pardon my lousy spelling.

Ethanol destroys the "seals" on the carb and motor. Destroys fuel lines also.
