Message	I know in Cali they are bound to say if it does or not but I do know some states don't have it on their pumps. Some do but voluntarily. I could be totally wrong but I've found it damn near impossible to find gas without it...though Sunoco is pretty awesome. Not exactly sure what is causing it but there is data out there about Ethanol. http://twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1673692 "If I'm an asshole it's only because I've been turned into one by the sheer amount of stupid people and stupid logic that dominate Twinturbo.net today."
