Where is 10% ethanol gasoline sold?
I just sent my sheets to Troyer and they called and wanted to know what type of fuel I used, "gasoline with -or- without 10% ethanol". I researched online and asked a couple local gas stations with no solid answer on where it is used. Should I order my tunes to include 10% ethanol?
I live in Maryland and travel a lot in Pennslyvania, Maryland, D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. What states are using it? Does it differ from distributor? Does anyone have experience with it and their tunes? |
California and Oregon use it. It's all that is available as far as I know. I've never been able to get gas that wasn't 10% ethanol so I can't compare performance.
|
Texas uses it, at least the Metroplex does anyway.
|
In MO all of our gas contains up to 10%. I would order it with it. You will run a little rich, but it is better than being tuned without and then running lean when you do put it in your gas tank.
|
Its all over. I live in a very small area and at least one gas station has it now. I lost 1-2mpg running it along with the cold winter grade and a Edge.
|
most of the midwest uses it. i know all of our gas here in minnesota is 10% ethanol. iv seen maybe 1 or 2 gas stations that dont use it. but most of the stations is the maryland dc area are not. theyre might be a few of them but its not readily available out east yet

a few stations here in nj contain the ol 10% ethanol
|
I'm pretty sure that most places in Virginia sell gas that contains at least 10% ethanol.
|
In Texas, the pumps have a sticker on them that says it contains 10%.
|
I just got some from Shell in Houston. And yes, it is advertised as to whether or not the gas has ethanol, but that might not be the case where you are from.
|
The thing is, even the place that sell it, switch back and forth. It "may" contain 10%. You can sure tell it when it does, you lose mpg. I would have him tune it which ever is safer, as I never really know if it has it or not.

I'm pretty sure all of delaware uses ethonel.
|
I've seen it a lot of places here in Pennsylvania which is one of the places you said you do some traveling. I've also lost about 1.5 mpg on it. But it's hard to say since it is winter and before my truck sat for a while after I blew a plug most stations didn't have the 10% ethanol yet.
