Is all gasoline the same even if it
is branded the same.
In Kansas they don't have to tell
you if there is Ethanol added.
I went to a movie in Olathe 2 weeks
ago and while driving through Gardner KS noticed a Shell station the
made a point of NO ALCOHOL.
So I said what the hell and filled
up. The price was 5% more than Alcohol SHELL stations.
The Subaru I use for my road trips
displays the it is getting 25 mpg.
After a few miles it was showing 30
mpg, thats a 20% increase.
I was in Gardner today (took my wife
to the movie and lunch for our 44th anniversary) and filled up again at
the NO ALCOHOL SHELL station and when I got home the display showed
31.3 mpg.
I talked to station owner, and he
was proud that he does not have any alcohol in any of his grades of
gasoline.
He told me it is difficult to get no
Alcohol because most suppliers don't have enough gasoline in the tanker
( it is mixed when it is pumped into the tanks at the station) to
supply no alcohol - even regular (87) has ethanol.
He went on some lenght about how
much more gasoline was being used by blending and he did not mention
the gasoline being used to grow and harvest the corn.
Made since, until there is NO IOL.
