Yes... Petro has ethanol in all their blends. That's why I don't use their 94 octane..
Ran out of gas...

Personally I only use Shell or CoOp premium, but we don't have a lot of choices around here.
Good info. Thank you Barry. But if you are like me and avoid ethanol blends, you still have to do your homework, as being a Top Tier recognized retailer does not mean you are ethanol free.

Makes me wonder about the financial viability of the Ethanol business these day. With gas a the price is it does it still make sense?
All I know is that I will avoid ethanol at all costs. The wife's 2016 Yukon doesn't call for premium, but that's all it gets as well.
Sadly I don't think that you can buy ethanol free gasoline in Ontario anyway from what my research has shown. So with that being the case maybe we should encourage (pressure) retailers to include additives in their gas to protect against the harmful effects of ethanol
uggghhhh that is sad.... At the very least we get more seat time out here driving around looking for ethanol free.... lol....
I don't think they actually have every station that runs no ethanol, but according to pure-gas.org. all of Ontario Costco's and some other stations have no ethanol in their premium.

Again sorry to be the bearer of bad news - every website I look at dealing with ethanol in gasoline seems to suggest that every retailer has to have a minimum of 5% of ethanol in their gasoline. Let's just hope there with the other two packages with some of the top-tier stations have inhibitors 4 damage from alcohol alcohol

Oh yeah....i forgot about some of your funny rules I think it was Colin or Keith that was telling me you have to verify every year that emmission output standards are met at some Corvette breathilizer testing station and can be fined for removing smog control devices.... 
Wow. Not being a boat owner, I didn't know that but I was cruising through Sicamous last week and noticed a designated pump for marine gas when I fueled up. So you're saying this is both premium and ethanol free? That would be very kewl as the rest of BC gas is supposedly ethanol blended. Not a problem here as we have lots of ethanol free premium choices.
I would check with the station as I'm not sure about BC regs but in Ontario marine gas has to be ethanol free.
Thankfully we have Chevron everywhere! I've only had my fuel sensor stop working once in the boonies of Nevada, added one bottle of Techron to the tank and the gauge worked within 10 minutes and I haven't had any issues since.
hmmmm .... sorry Carve ... saw Cariboo BC as your address and assumed you were talking about BC marine fuel.... ... lol...
All Shell 91 octane is ethanol free here in the lower mainland of B.C. Otherwise if you can't find ethanol free gas carry a bottle or two of Sea Foam in the trunk, and add per instructions.
