Because the Chevron I stopped in at tonight didn't have any markings on the pump and the attendant did not know if that meant the gas was ethanol free. Anyone know if law requires labeling ethanol-mixed gas at the pump?
I'm not sure about the actual "law," but i do notice that i always see pumps at the regular gas stations stating that the gas can contain up to 10% ethanol. Which leads me to believe that not many gas stations in socal contain "straight gas."

I guess Costco is just more honest about thier e10 ratings.
