Run the ethanol test on all the gas you buy. Do not burn fuel with ethanol in your airplane. Revert to 100LL if ethanol free gasoline cannot be found.
Gasoline blended with ethanol can be corrosive and damaging to aircraft fuel systems. Range is less with
ethanol blended gasoline. It has an affinity for water and can pull moisture from inlet air on humid days to an extent which has lead
to engine malfunctions. If you cannot find
gasoline that you are certain is ethanol free then you must revert to using avgas.
The use of ever increasing quantities of ethanol in gasoline is
happening across the country due to Federal tax incentives, Federally mandated ethanol target figures, and the actions of various state
legislatures.
Keep abreast of legislative activity in your state.
