Nobody should be running ethanol gas and really there's no need to.

How much time (and aggravation) are ya spending on fooling with vapor locked equipment?
Where are you in VA specifically? I just looked at the map and there are only a couple areas you could live that would require a longer drive to get pure gas and they all look to be well short of an hour one way. VA is almost covered up in good gas stations. Maybe I'm missing something here.
Either which way, it's your equipment and your choice. I spent enough years watching my father ruin power equipment with ethanol that I'll buy the expensive premixed cans if I'm in a place where there is no pure gas conveniently located.
I've seen the tests. I've watched petroleum engineers discuss ethanol's effects on engines. I've seen the damage first hand in equipment owned by friends and family.
There is absolutely no question ethanol damages engine components. This isn't tinfoil nuttery stuff, but proven fact. If you don't want to believe me, well that's like cool man.
Keep his name and number for a rainy day when cash is good. Guys like that sometimes throw high quality stuff on the curb, because to them it's "just a saw" taking up room for his new golf clubsFinance you lol. You're the dude living in the Richey Rich district.
I got my Stihl string trimmer off a guy in Raleigh that had just moved from close to where you live. Dude had a large collection of impeccably maintained Stihl stuff. Not sure what he did for a living, but I'm guessing he was way over gunned for whatever he was facing up there. He claimed his yard here was smaller and just couldn't justify a fleet of high end, pro ***. If I had more in the bank on that particular day, I would have raided his garage.
Of course we are all aware that there are problems with ethanol in modern high pressure injection engines. There is absolutely nothing to neglect about the facts. BUT I believe we should not leave out the clear fact that it has been known by the engine industry since almost two decades that ethanol would be introduced! And did they react accordingly? I believe we all know the answer to that...I've seen the tests. I've watched petroleum engineers discuss ethanol's effects on engines. I've seen the damage first hand in equipment owned by friends and family.

When in doubt, blame Obama.
