12/14 - ETHANOL, WHERE YOU BUY BOAT FUEL

EXXON GAS STATION, ATLANTIC & GIRVIN ROAD INTERSECTION.
''ETHANOL LEVEL'' 

Been buying all my boat fuel, and diesel there for at least 12 years. Been testing the ethanol level of the regular gasoline for years. Haven't tested in a few years, since I got my Suzuki 250 SS, because it's built for up to E15. But today figured, ''what the heck,'' This station has never tested anywhere near 10% allowed ethanol. HERE'S TODAY'S TEST...ABOUT 6%, SO MY UNSCIENTIFIC TEST SHOWED.
ETHANOL TESTING IS SUPER EZ.

Beware!!!!!! Not all gas stations are below the 10% allowable. Years ago, I tested the reg. gas at the SHELL STATION, at ATLANTIC blvd & SAN PABLO rd.
That fuel tested at the max of 10% Ehanol. Never been back since. Same as Walmart gas, at Atlantic & Kernan road.
