I've never seen. Is this new?

Where's the 87?
Actually.. there isn't even 93. Is this just Flying J Pilot?

Can’t say that I’ve seen a base 88 as the lowest grade. Where was this taken?

Sunoco used to sell an economy 86. I’ve seen liweroctanes at high altitudes. Some places also sell 92 vs 93 to squeeze a penny since most cars are designed to advance to 91 levels, not 93 (as it was explained to me).

Missing the orange “this fuel intended” warning sticker.

Many areas don’t have a single source of 93, my area is just 91 premium unless you like driving 20 miles to get gas.

My guess is that is a grain belt station and 87 is likely considered unprofitable (e15 is occasionally the lowest ethanol at some automated pumps with only a couple tanks in the pump farm)

Back in ye olde times we had remote “ethanol stations “ that only sold 89+ and everything had ethanol up to e85

Our old Jeep just waiting to run again. I’m probably going to go ahead and do the engine in it. I’m trying to decide if I want to fix this first or our 1994 Ford Econoline first. Either way we need another daily to replace the 2004 Camry as you can tell it’s on its last legs and can’t afford a new one so I know we will definitely keep the van but this might get running and trade for a Blazer especially as long as it has set and I want a Blazer more but I know the value of the Jeep will decrease tremendously putting a new engine in as it would not be stock so I have to consider that too. I might wash this today wish we had a pressure washer.

What engine are you swapping in? Can't imagine it would affect the value much unless an exotic swap.

That jeep will have way more value than a Blazer. Know you don't want to hear it as you love the Blazer, I did too when I was growing up. But an XJ has way more value, aftermarket support, etc. I'd keep it and drive the wheels off. That's just me.

It will be just a factory looking crate engine. Couldn’t imagine putting something in that would change the appearance lol. It’s just if I was buying and know the engine had been swapped that would be a deal breaker for me in a way because I’m a 100% purist. Lol. I hate to know this would have more value than a Blazer lol 😂 especially since in my opinion neither one of them come from a reputable company especially the Jeep 😂.

Dang. Now I am happy I just keep it topped up. Just got a lot of work done to my car...

So, I jammed in $15 worth, I didn't do any damage right? They just straight up didn't have 87.

Some say you're giving your engine fuel system a really good cleaning if it ends up in there on accident, you're saying it was not E10 regular gas you are saying it was E85 for flex fuel vehicles which delivers LESS energy content.. gonna need a refresher on E10 vs E85 (why not call it E15) etc.

As long as you can speak to the history of the vehicle, doubt anyone cares. Even a selling point ...

You'll regret selling it 1000% at some point in the future. I'd DD the heck out of it if gas prices aren't a limiting factor.

Nope e15 works in 99% of the vehicles out there.

E85 would not list an ethanol value

Our ancient ethanol stations were called blending stations and you could choose pretty much any ethanol content from e15 to e85

If I lived close enough, I’d buy that Cherokee. It’s a piece of junk Mopar with a bad engine,…so it should be super cheap. 🤔
It deserves a loving home. 😉😎🍻
