Leaving work early tomorrow, then my week is over.

Gotta wash the STi tomorrow.

Gotta fill up corn today. Idk if I want to fill up here in Davis, or overshoot the house and fill up at Madison/Sunrise on my way home.

Looking around to see if any new stations got set up since the last time I looked around.

Get the AltFuel app. Shows all the E85 stations.

There's at least 3 stations in West Sacramento. I go to Propel at the Shell pumps 1515 S River Rd, West Sacramento, CA 95691, but that's not really on your path home. The Shell at 800 Riverpoint Drive and Chevron at 705 Harbor Pointe Place off Reed and 80 both have E85 and are on your way home. The Shell has Green Wave and the Chevron has Propel, IIRC.

Concentration wise the flyers off Madison/80 has always showed the highest ethanol content for me.

Quality wise I've heard that Propel is the best. There's one off auburn/antelope.

If you've got an ethanol sensor, would variances in content matter?

Less ethanol, less timing advance, less power.

Yeah, but 85 vs 70 is usually no more than about 1* which is 10hp tops
