You can look on the pump and read the labeled and see in most states.. A lot of the better grades of High Test don't have ethanol. Check your local Amoco/BP.....Sunoco....station

Looks like the only ones in St. Mary's are dockside for boats. Am I missing any?

BTW, why are everyone else's gas station prices so low compared to St. Mary's?! A few are under $2. in Charles Co. We are still 10-20 cents higher.

Awesome, thanks everyone

Buzzes marine in Scotland has it I believe. I think drurys marine also has it.

Forgive my ignorance but what is the significance or benefit of no ethanol?

Better mpg and less damage to platic/rubber/neoprene fittings, hoses and other parts. Someone correct or add anything else that is of concern.

Bob's Sunoco is Ethanol free but cost a few cents more per galleon.

You can fill up at the pump at st.marys airport located just north of Wildwood in California, MD. Dont know the price per gallon but father in law gets fuel from there for all his small engines.

Ah... I'd always noticed that the gas there is a little more expensive but I hadn't noticed why. I guess I'll start filling up there!

Alcohol has less energy-density than gasoline, so your gas-mileage is reduced with ethanol mixed in.

Alcohol burns hotter than gasoline, which is bad for engines that aren't designed for it (basically all gasoline engines other than the ones in FlexFuel vehicles).

Alcohol also isn't good for storing fuel long-term. It causes the gasoline to break down more quickly, even if you add a stabilizer to the fuel.

I own a 2014 Nissan Frotier. Last week when I started it a couple of times, the engine struggled to idle. It has 6K trouble free miles on it. Was this ethanol or gas line freezing? My MPG has dropped from an average of 19 to 15 as well.

Shell gas station, center of Route 3 just north of Crofton.
