Gassed the wife's car.  No ethanol stickers on any pumps.  Recently inspected by the county/state.  E10 stickers are rew by law.

I asked but they didn't know what I was talking about.  He said come back and talk to owner.

Anyone have a clue?

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I have seen a few places that don't have the E10 sticker on the pump...but on the premises they have the poster that states the gas may have up to 10% ethanol blah blah blah blah.....

Nothing of the sort and state law requires notice right on the pump.

The pumps were inspected recently too.

Liberty is Russian owned, isn't it?  /irony

They are listed as providing E0 somewhere else in VA, so maybe...

Lukoil is russian.  I don't think Liberty is.

did you contact the gas station to find out from the owner if they use non ethanol gas?

While I wouldn't care so much for regular riding (at least my '75 Guzzi doesn't mind it), E0 would def. make me feel better for long-term storage because of the breakdown issues.

not yet.  like most places of this type, the owner/manager isn't sitting around by the phone in an office, i just figure i need to drop by when someone is there.

i am just surprised if they DON'T have unadulterated G100 instead of G90 because of the legal issues, they can be fined a shitload by the state for not posting the sticker if they are selling G90.
