Regular...good. 85 octane ok? (no ethanol)...

No gasahol? That's good info Brother, thanks. Is there a minimum octane that I should use? (or a max octane that I shouldn't go past?)

recreation gas for boats which has zero ethanol and is high octane but can be also in the other grades too. here the only gas stations that use them is como oil and (rec 90) and also cumberland farms which is nation wide and has no ethanol. mid grade there will do.
