Ethanol Free Gasoline 90 Octane
I have been using QT's no ethanol gas and I've seen gains of +65 horsepower and 55MPG......
HAHAHAH jk jk. Is anyone else using this when you can? Thoughts? A quote from JD power "Non-ethanol gas or clear gas is a fuel type without any ethanol content, made only from petroleum, and free from renewable fuel additives. Due to the absence of ethanol in this fuel type, it offers a couple of advantages, including; improved gas mileage, reduced engine damage risk, and a shelf life of up to 6 months" |

I started using it after I had an issue with fueling on my 2019 330i. I had been using mostly Exxon prem. and started running into an issue with stuttering, especially off throttle (ie when first applying throttle like coming off a stop or driving in a parking lot). Exxon is considered good fuel, but the fueling station I frequented always caused a fueling issue after filling up there. I switched to ethanol free and the problem went away after running the tank to empty and refiling it twice. Now, I primarily use ethanol free, but on occasion I'll use Shell prem.

Shell Premium in Nebraska is ethanol-free with an octane rating of 91. However, when I traveled to California, I noticed that their premium gasoline contains ethanol and has an octane rating of 93. This discrepancy now makes perfect sense to me.
