Just do your homework and do what you feel best. Welcome, Good luck and enjoy your new ride.

Thanks for response. Figured you were saying NOT. So even with treatment like star tron or similar, you would drive 20+ miles to find ethanol free 87?

I really believe this- if you use it regularly, average pump gas will be fine. If it sits for long periods, ethanol-free might be better. The sticker on newer yamaha gas tanks say "E10" (10% ethanol) is fine if I recall.

I use regular, though I think some brands are better than others here one of my cars really likes BP standard better than the other no name fuel. Some people I know have problems and run offroad fuel they have here, its 100% gas. They use it in ATV and whatever. Its more than regular, its not the offroad fuel farmers use. Some people say their blowers and lawn equipment and atv/etc run better or start better. I've not had a problem with regular. Way back when I worked at a golf course they bought substandard fuel it was 85 octane or something it was lower than regular, it was cheaper, the golf carts were 6:1 compression and didn't care.
