Default Type of gas

We purchased a 2012 Yamaha gas golf cart. What type of gasoline do we by. Regular and add additives or non ethanol

Additives are usually bad news, as is ethanol. Avoid them if possible.

Pure-gas.org has a listing by states who have non ethanol gas

Where I live, pure gas is not an option.

I have been using Startron in all of my small engines and motorcycles after ethanol related issues with a garden tractor many years ago. Not one problem since!

I am using it in my new Yamaha Drive2 PTV as well.

YMMV

Don't buy the gas from the green handle, that's diesel....

You will pay more for it, but all Marinas offer non ethanol fuel for the boats, cause they have learned what ethanol fuel will do

As far as a tank (around 6 gallons) will take you, it shouldn't be too big a deal.

I was thinking about this the other day, I think I could go between 250-300 miles on a tank of fuel 7 gallons

My cart with bigger tires was still pulling around 35 mpg when I was driving it to work everyday.
