What fuel do you feed your guzzler. Any additives?

I’m fortunate that there are four stations that sell real gas with no ethanol within 10 minutes of my house, so that’s what I feed mine. All my small engines get the good stuff too. Pretty much anything with a carb I try to keep the ethanol away from it.

I don’t daily mine, so it’s only filled every couple months. I’d hate to have ethanol sitting that long.

I agree with Chirk. Here's a site to help you find good fuel.

https://www.pure-gas.org/

I also like to add some StarTron every now and then and always to stored fuel and small engines.

duh, of course. In a bit of a fog here. Good job I wasn't making a cross border purchase. I think I was remembering the days in the 60's when I was a young kid and the exchange rate favoured Canada for a short while.
