Forgive me if this has already been hashed out before - several of our newest QuikTrip stations in my area are starting to carry ethanol free 87 octane petrol. It's a bit pricey, about $0.50 a gallon higher than standard 87 octane.
Question is without the ethanol, what is added to the fuel to raise/lower the octane to that 87 number? Is there going to be any long term benefit by using it in a car versus the alcoholgas? (the bike loves the stuff)
Some other stations carry an array of ethanol free ranging from 89 to 93 octane, but this QuikTrip is @ 1 mile from me. Thanks.
