I noticed the new Buckies up Springfield sells it.  Not that it's Branson but I go by there on the way down...

25 places in Springfield are listed, 5 in Branson, 3 in Branson West; I didn't think it was that hard to find anymore,  lot's of places in this area sell the "premium" gas, no ethanol but more $$

I go to the Bullseye in Ozark.  Separate nozzle for unleaded premium.

I get a smile out of the "unleaded" part. The ethanol mix is also "unleaded" as is the E80.

^^ Yeah all fuel is unleaded these days.  But not all fuel is ethanol free.

I wonder what is in it instead?  some of the ethanol free stuff doesn't even look like gasoline.

Are you old enough to remember white gas?

I suspect there is a bit of a play on words going on. 🤔

People bring me boats all the time, claiming "I only buy ETHANOL FREE fuel"..... But I test it, and it always has 8-10% alcohol content.   

Which is fine, as long as it is fresh. 

 3-4 month old fuel is starting to degrade noticably when tuning idle mixtures.   And 8+ month old fuel is terrible.... Sometimes won't even kill weeds.
