View Full Version : Ethanol free gas? North burbs

I'm in the McKinney area and curious if anybody knows a good place to get true Ethanol free gasoline. I run premium gas, and currently just try to stick with bigger name stations (Shell / Chevron, etc). But each station is practically a franchise so I'm kind of doubtful brand loyalty. Any tips or tricks?


Found plenty of stupid links on google, but it's hit or miss and what hits looks dubious at best.

By brand or gas station doesn't matter too much when everyone fuel station in the DFW Metro area is forced to buy ethanol blend fuel.

I know a station or two in Oklahoma that has pure 91 octane. Which after reading up is supposed to be better then 93 blend? Not sure but whatever. On another note I know a station in dallas that sells 95 octane at the pump.

wharz 95 gas? I know where to get 100 race gas from pump but it's not worth the drive or the price they ask imo... 95 for say 4.00-4.25 a gallon would be though.

Harry Hines. Get off 635 and harry hines, go south. Shell station on the right. 95 at the pump. Same price as 93.

How far south do you go? Are you talking about the one at Harry Hines and northwest hwy? Or the one by the Mexican tire shop?

too bad I dont work over there anymore, woulda been real convenient to fill up on the way home. its 26 miles from my house which is about the same as the 100 octane place in V.A., but it's 3.70ish a gallon is a lot better then 8 bucks a gallon.

Whoops. Didn't see at the bottom, kind of set on autopilotto gloss over signatures.
