Is ethanol content labeled on gas pumps?
An 85% blend of ethanol, or E-85, is always labeled at the pump because it is an alternative fuel only usable in Flexible Fuel Vehicles (FFVs). A 10% blend of ethanol, or E-10, is commonly available. While it is usually labeled in Oregon and Washington, it is not always labeled. E-10 can be used in any vehicle; and here labeling requirements are set at the state level. Many states have moved away from labeling ethanol, so it is not always possible to tell if you’re getting ethanol-blended fuel at the pump.
