To square this circle, @dlearl476-- I absolutely drive wherever I have to for E-free gas to run in the eleventy-billion small engines around my place (mower, chain saw, tiller, edger, weed whip(s), post hole digger, compactor, leaf blower(s). I add fuel stabilizer to all of it-- even to the gas that's running through the mower, edger, whip, and blower when we're mowing every 4 or 5 days in May.
I've even purchased and burned the high-dollar pre-mix gas one can buy at outdoor power equipment centers. I'm a big advocate of running the best gas possible in those engines. I'm done buying a handful of Stihl carburetors every spring.
