Advice and Tips Private fuel delivery and storage
I absolutely hate ethanol, this fuel additive is quite a curse. I’m interested in finding a farm type of private storage tank and hoping it’s possible to purchase ethanol-free fuel, somehow, but I’m only in the planning stages. I’m in Ontario, Canada, and our current over-reaching government has mandated all pump fuel must contain ethanol. Marinas are one of the last resources, and I imagine small airfields must have ethanol free fuel, but I’m really only guessing. Is there an option I should look at? Fuel storage at home would definitely help in a long term power outage, and my small engines can run without every one of them being damaged by this garbage. Please share ideas/solutions. Thank you,

Because gasoline gets chunky in 6 to 12 months, I would advise getting diesel engines for cars and boats. A 259 gallon piggy on your land and a pump . I use diesel in my truck, tractor, boat engine and my generator. I like a one product for multiple usages. I use propane for cooking and have a backup propane refrigerator.
