I'm looking for stations that sell non ethanol premium (91-93 octane) gas in or near the following locations: Grenada, Ms (Grenada Lake), Batesville, Ms (Enid Lake), Sardis, Ms (Sardis Lake), Greenville, Ms (Lake Washington). If you know of any locations in any of these areas your help is appreciated.
Ethanol-free gas stations in the U.S. and Canada
looks like a tough bunch down there, lots of ethanol free but only 87 octane
I dont know of anyone who sells premium ethanol free
So far all I've found is Eupora, not on the way to any of my fishing, and Kosciusko which is ok if I'm going to Barnett. Somewhere there has to be some in the big four area.Quote:

I've got a mercury 250 xs Optimax made by Mecury racing division
It's a 2003 and they recommend the premium
Sorry to keep stringing this post out. The recommended fuel is 91 octane non ethanol. I did call them and ask about the high octane 10% ethanol. They said I "could" use it if necessary but it is not their first recommendation.
Don't know anywhere. One option might be to buy no ethanol 87 and add an octane booster. You'd have to run the math to estimate the boost you get and hope the label is accurate. The racing division motors run at higher compression and require the higher octane to avoid pre/detonation an eventual motor kablooey. Personally, I think I'd go the booster route rather than treated non-ethanol.

Ditto, x3 on this.Quote:

Do you know the name of the charleston station
Says sayle service center on that map
I'm going to Sardis tomorrow to get 50 gallons. With the garden starting up and grass cutting I hope it will last a month.
There's non-ethanol in Water Valley. Don't know the name of the station, but it's on Wise St at Bergland. It's one of those stations with no building or employees, just gas pumps.
1 bottle of 104 octane boost per 20 gal. Put in before filling up and you will be fine
Non Ethanol gas is easy to find, but most of it is regular, not premium. The octane boost is the way to go.
I bought these at an auction for 0.50 each.

Got a lead on a place about 4-5 miles west of the Oakland/water valley exit. That would put it about 10 miles from Enid. Will check it out and let you know.
The non-ethanol pumps at the Ballinger's gas stations in Memphis are 91. I do not know how far Ballinger's reach is, though.
