    If you can find 100 at the pump let me know where the station is! I know of one in all of Orange County and it's about an hour from me, which is no bueno.

    I would expect that if it has ethanol in it it should be posted as so on the pump.

    Whether there is ethanol in a particular station in California depends on the county and the brand. So, as asked, the question cannot be answered. Here in the Monterey area, Chevron is allegedly ethanol free. So when you come for Car Week in August, or Rennsport, fill-up at a Chevron worry free.

    Yes - believe it or not, not all the stations listed on there actually sell 100+ gas. I used to go to the station in Orange, but half the time you end up buying a can of VP fuel as their pumps were out. The only one on tat list I wasn't aware of is the one in Newport - will check it this weekend. But I am now in San Clemente so even a drive to newport to fill up is a bit of a PITA
