E-15 gasoline and potential engine damage

[sumbeech66]

I got that there is an application process but was curious as to details like do you have to be a business owner, is there a membership fee, a minimum amount of gallons a year? etc.

Thanks for any info fellas!

 Before my old  desktop died I had a link in my favorites for ethanol free fuel locations in my area. (actually the whole state) I have been looking to duplicate it on this one and am having trouble finding it. I think I found it on BCR a few years back. Any Ideas?? So far I've found this one.  looks like Unocal is about it on this site.

 
 I am removing this link since it seems to be outdated and not relevant any more

No.  They do have business accounts but they let individuals sign up too.  When I tried about a year ago, I talked to a really nice lady.  She said it's basically just a credit check since you'll be buying gas and paying the bill at the end of the month instead of paying when you pump.  They state that they have minimum purchase amounts but the lady said that it's not a problem if you don't hit the mark every month.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Any Idea why I'm getting that?

 I DID get through once a few minutes ago (out of about 15) to the original and printed it.  Thank you DoubleJ!

Hmmmm. Thanks for that info. Gonna have to look into it. Did you get the card? I assume the price is comparable to everywhere  else?

Dear Jim,

Please find below a special message from our friends at Energy Citizens. They have some important information to share with you.

Dear Jim:

Every week, Americans across the nation rely on their cars, trucks, and SUVs to get to work, take their kids to school, and run their businesses. Almost every week, hard-working Americans need to stop at their local gas station to fuel up.

The last thing we need to worry about is what “blend” of fuel the EPA thinks we should put in our gas tanks.

But that’s not what Congress was considering when they passed the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). The standard mandated that gradually increasing amounts of biofuels be blended into gasoline and diesel. However, when they set this arbitrary amount, they didn’t realize that the amount of gasoline and diesel we are using is steadily decreasing. In short, there is not enough gasoline and diesel to absorb the biofuel.

We need to tell Congress that the Renewable Fuel Standard is not the right answer for American’s energy strategy.
Failure to repeal the Renewable Fuel Standard this year will create big problems for American consumers:

Ethanol blends above 10% could damage millions of vehicles on the road today and void engine warranties;
Higher ethanol blends could harm gas station infrastructure;
The economic damage will impact everyone.
The answer is clear: The RFS is an unworkable federal mandate that must be repealed. Take action today!
Sincerely,

Energy Citizens

Unless we want our chainsaws, lawnmowers , weedeaters, generators, outboards, bikes, quads snowmobiles, and ANY other small engines we own to be destroyed since ethanol free gas is becoming extinct,and the next step is E-15 coming soon we should sign on with this. I'm getting real tired of the "progressives" running every aspect they can our lives!! Cenex Snohomish, Sultan Pac Pride, Everett marina, and Eerett (so far) OK gas and smoke mart, and various airports are the only places in the county we can get it, and how many pollutants are realeased when we do all that driving (usually in our least fuel efficient vehicles...towing trailers) to get it?

There is a station in Auburn that I use to fuel my boat and sports cars with ethanol free fuel, it's right off of 15th street north of the horse track.

Price is comparable, depending on the owner.  Some gouge a dime/gal or so.  find your local owner and give them a call.

Its not cheap, last time I was down there it was about $0.10 higher per gallon than average. Cash only, and the attendant is a grumpy old guy but decent enough once you go a few times.

Here is the station info:

Fuel Farm
325 C Street Northwest
Auburn, WA 98001

From this comment on ATV connection I wold guess living near the border would be a good thing.

"It,s the corn growing lobbyist big push. I use to buy my gas in the states (I live on a border town) but now I pay more and fill up in Canada where the gas comes from dead dinosaurs not a plant.

Soon there will be millions of corn drinking cars on the road while people are starving to death."

Just talked to Nelson Petroleum and they are currently working on installing a storage tank and pump for ethanol free fuel at their Arlington location.
