Ethanol free gas is no longer available at Rudy's according to new stickers on the pumps.

Well, Tyler, now that you mention it, maybe they are selling it in the regular grade. Now, I remember seeing the "not ethanol free" stickers on the two upper grades, but not on regular. My bad, I guess! I just saw some stickers and assumed there was no ethanol free at all. I'll have to check again.

Thanks. Sorry for the error.

The regular is still ethanol free. I filled up there yesterday. Well, I tried to fill up and the pump cut my card off at $75.

From what I understand not all or many Rudy's carry ethanol free.

Since the mid-grade is actually a blend of super and regular unleaded, the alcohol in mid-grade (plus) will be less than 10 percent at Rudy's. Usually the blend is 33% premium and 67% unleaded to achieve the 89 octane for unleaded plus. Therefore, the alcohol content on plus will be in the 3-4 percent range.
