I didn't print the entire list, just a few I wanted to call that were more local, but the Boat Guy at $15/gallon was the cheapest, the next one on the list wanted $22 per. Probably not cost effective for a boater, but when I might only go through 5 gallons of gas a year in my yard maintenance equipment that has been the most susceptible to ethanol problems; I might consider it. One repair bill at a small engine shop is going to be $125 minimum an my blower wasn't more than that to begin with. I think I might just buy a couple gallons when I get the new Mantis tiller and if I decide to get the blower fixed. I'd probably just use it in the tiller, chain saw and blower; the mower I think for whatever reason doesn't seem to mind it.

Oh Boy, those prices are surreal.

Last time I was down in FLA in Jacksonville many stations down there had no ethanol gas for just maybe 30-50 cents more a gallon.....something like that.............

Check out Fuel Ox. I have been using it in all my equipment, marine, diesel and 4 stroke gas.

All my saws, trimmers and blowers are Stihl and as long as you use the Stihl 2 stroke oil in the gas I have had no issues at all with any of my equipment. 4 Chain saws, 2 industrial strength trimmers and 2 backpack blowers.

No boat, back in the suds.
