"Various people 'here' do that with tractors and small engines (particularly snowblowers and generators) because you can't buy automobile gasoline with no ethanol in it due to EPA mandates."
Don't know about NJ, just bought 2 gallons of 92 octane no-ethanol premium here in Missouri. I'm amazed at the number of people that experience fuel problems, related to ethanol. I've never (knock on wood) had any of the hard start or other issues that get posted on here. That's zero problems with any of the gas fueled equipment we have. Tillers, mowers, tractor, lawn tractor, water pump, chain saws, splitter, etc. The tiller and splitter sit for months without being worked. The tiller will start on the 2nd or 3rd pull, the splitter on the 4th or 5th. Have to overcome the hydro fluid drag on the pump. Used to use regular in the chainsaws, when I bought a new Husky, it recommended no ethanol so that's what it gets.
