E10 secretly changing to E15 in Tulsa?
 
I don't have any verified source on this, but I was told that gasoline suppliers were going to start adding 5% more Ethanol to the gasoline delivered to Tulsa area stations. The owner manual states that the car can run on up to E10, so this is going to suck if it's true. It also sucks that stations aren't required to disclose this information via a label on the pump.

From what I've heard, the Phillips 66 station at the corner of 71st and Mingo sells 100% pure gas as does the station at 21st and Lewis. Anyone else know of places that have Ethanol free gasoline? Does anyone know the effects (besides lower gas mileage) E15 would have on the rotary engine?

they are pushing to do 20%.

I can't find any local gas stations anymore that doesn't have the 10% warning sticker.

One of the big problems in Oklahoma is that gas stations aren't required to have a visual disclosure on whether or not they are selling a blended gasoline. This will change July 1st when the law requring disclosure goes in to effect.
