I checked Ontario and thought, "Hmmm - gotta be more than 18 stations in the entire province selling ethanol-free."

Then I saw this...:D

Toronto SHELL 91 Various Shell Stations 11111 any street

Yeah, in Canada, all Shell vPower 91 is ethanol free. Also Chevron 94 is ethanol free at least out west.

Great link.
I use the gator station in Punta Gorda,FL. They have 90 octane without alcohol. It is on the list you posted and is the only land station in the area where you can get ethanol free gas.
Punta Gorda is primarily a boating community, so it is odd that we only have one place to buy our gas with the exception of the more costly mariners.

I emailed Shell to thank them for being one of the few providers that offer Ethanol free gas options.

I figured if they hear good things from customers about wanting ethanol free that might help them keep offereing it.

This would make a great sticky. Too bad there is no ethanol free gas within 45 minutes of me :(

For those of you that do not find anything close to you, check around, call different ones, if you can find some that is not on the list there is a place to add them. I have found out 2 in my area that is not on the list, they are marinas, so higher price than on the street, I am going to check and get the information and add them to the list just so they will be on it.

Do a google search on the topic of ethanol free gas, etc....
There are several web sites that post lists like this, and they may differ.
One site may not have captured all of the places in your areas that may sell this.
I had once source close to me go under, and didn't realize till I poked around a bit that there was another place only a mile or so farther away.

Keep in mind that these lists are posted at a period of time, and some may be kept more current than others.

That is just a customer generated list, so a) its going to miss MANY of the stations. b) It is going to list ones that may sell ethanol. (lets say i'm a station owner, I just have to submit my station to the list and mix ethanol all i want!)

(9 stations listed for my entire state, when in reality I can't think of a single one that sells exclusively ethanol, they ALL have the mid grade as e10, but 87 and 91 octane are ethanol free.)

The BEST thing to do is write your state level lawmakers. Get them to pass a law that all ethanol gas must be labeled as such at the pump if it isn't already a law. I see they actually do list the states that have labeling requirements. Last I checked there were only about 5 that did, it is substantially better now, with only 13 that have no label requirements.

Minnesota requires all gasoline sold for standard motor vehicle use to be oxygenated now. Since MTBE was banned, ethanol is the oxygenator of choice, so we just assume all gasoline pumps have the 10% whiskey.
Except for the E85 that a few places offer.
Our pumps that sell non oxy gas have to be specially labeled, and we're not allowed to use it for regular use- just small engines, collector cars, boats, etc..

what exactly does ethanol do to marine service engines?

Re: Link for Ethanol Free Gas Stations US/Canada

I have a fuel company deliver to my boat. It is 90 octane non-ethanol for $3.39 a gallon.

Cannot beat that! All the marinas in my area are over $4.20 a gallon.

This is in the WPB, FL area.. They do cover a pretty wide area, check out Dockside Petroleum.
