Cool link.

I already knew of the few around here, they are local marinas.

I'm surprised there aren't more along the coast. :idk:

Nothing near me. Sucks - my yard tools run like shit on this 85/15 blend. I've already had to replace a 3 year old leaf blower and 2 year old weed trimmer. :skep:

I have had to rebuild our push mower twice and it's only 5 years old. Crappy.

There are a lot more around us than that map shows. They are getting smaller but there are some stations holding out. I'll have to start paying attention to the stations again.

Ethenol fucked up a perfectly good Honda Pressure Washer for me.

SC is slammed with non-eth stations.

Fuck yeah, there's one right down the street from me! My car runs like absolute shit on ethanol, and the stuff breaks down after sitting for like two weeks. Thanks for the link. ;)

Our push mower is at the end of it's 3rd season and just started leaking oil last time I used it. Haven't checked it out yet.

Closest one to me is in Hendersonville...about 25 miles away. Well, Murfreesboro too, but same distance. Good thing we're looking to move to H'Ville eventually anyway! I have a 93 Ninja and 94 MX-6 I'd love to not run Ethanol in...

It sits on 4 wheels.

Harharharharhar

Not.

Lemme rephrase: what's the longest time period where it is unused?



(and yes, I'm just jealous that you thought of it first :lol:)

None for me. Although, I doubt my 97 Camry cares what kind of gas it gets. The lawnmowers, weedeater and motorcycle might be a different story, though.
