Gas Stations in NoVa
 
Which is your favorite gas station to go to, and have you found any zero-ethanol gas in Northern Virginia? I have looked at a couple, and they all seem to have 10% Ethanol.

Thank you!

I work and operate a Shell station so I fuel here xD, Shell next to K-mart in Annandale.
There aren't any zero-ethanol stations in Northern Virginia region.
Some marinas may have some but I don't know if they'll let you fuel for a car, never tried.

I don't see why you would want to fuel with zero-ethanol in this car. wether you are n/a, supercharged, or turbo there are gains to be had across the board as ethanol content rises. The stock ecu programming works well for e5-e15 in the fuel.

im on the same boat. this car is designed for ethanol gas.. i tried to search out ethanol free when i had my lexus, because that motor wasnt designed for ethanol and tests have proven the e15 mix breaks down faster than regular gas and can be harmful to engines not designed for it.

although some people are saying ethanol free 93 octane makes the chirping go away.

That's one of the reasons I looked for one. Other reasons are my two bikes.
