E10/E15 gasoline

Signage may not be effective if e15 is sold alongside of e10 in pumps having only one hose - there will be a significant quantity of the last customer's gas choice coming down the hose to your tank before you get what you really selected - this is a problem that bugs me everyday as I search for the available non-ethanol pumps in Wisconsin - only a relatively few of the stations still offering the non-ethanol gas sell it through the older style pumps with a dedicated hose for each product selection

I don't think that will be a problem because I don't think there will be many if any people buying E-15.
 
The big problem is that here in California there are almost no ethanol free pumps anywhere. If they do exist they are out in the boonies far away from Los Angeles. :\

They don't put ethanol in aircraft engines. Might be a good source for you if you're close to a small airstrip.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe it's illegal for the airport fuel services to sell aviation gas for street use. At least I believe so here in California.
 
I believe you're correct...use of aviation fuel for road use is illegal, if for no other reason that the appropriate taxes haven't been paid for it.
