Ethanol and Boat Motors

As of 3 weeks ago there were no E10 stickers on the pumps.

Sorry Big J, I just went by the Nelson Road Walmart and Sam's, both are now E10.
The only pure gasoline that I know of in Lake Charles are Cormies and Jimbo's.
411 buddies, please let us know if you know of any others that sell pure gasoline.
I will drive some distance and pay more for the real thing.

Cormie's is on my way to and from fishing.
But they said they are not sure when thety will have to go to E-10.
For now, Bowtie Marina and Nalmar have non E-10 gas, but you pay a premium on the water.
Not sure if Davis Seafood still sells gas on the water. Hafta check them out too.
I don't think you will have any worries if you use it in new boats with new motors.
The hoses are rated for ethanol and the motors and tanks have no build up in them yet.

I heard that it wouldn't be long before sams switched. I guess we should start a list of non E10 stations in the area. I'll keep my eye open. Thanks for the update on Sams & Murphy

Here is a list of pure gas stations in Louisiana.

I hate to think what E10 would do to an emergency generator after it has been sitting for 8-9 months.
Staybil will help.
Maybe the solution to the E10 outboard problem is to use the engine at least once per week,
I wonder if the wife will buy that one. HaHa!

That list doesn't include the fuel docks on the water.

No E10 stickers on the pumps @ the Exxon station on the corner of Park Rd. & Pinecone Dr. in Moss Bluff.

Is there a list of locations with gas available on the water at Big Lake?

Asco dock in Cameron.
Davis Seafood in Hackberry.
Cocohoe's at Heberts in Big Lake.
Bowtie Marina on Contraband Bayou.
Nalmar Marina across the ship channel from the Port of Lake Charles.
Parkside Marina on the West Fork.
Spicers on Kelso Bayou.

Not sure if Dugas in Hackberry has any gas since the hurricanes.
