Who knows about petrol and ethanol/alcohol additives?

Hi, what petrol retailer sells 91 RON petrol without ethanol added? The ethanol eats my petcock rubber parts. Hoping you can help.

Anywhere except Gull I think...

There is a bit about this on the web but I can't see much post 2012. There is (was?) a requirement that if a station is selling ethanol they have to have signs saying so.

Gull claim there is no ethanol in their 91. Butane is another matter apparently.
Mobil S1000 and S8000 do contain ethanol but are not available everywhere, and the one station I know of that sells those has the signs.
Z were talking about the costs of adding ethanol but whether they got around to it or not I don't know.

My Triumph has a steel tank, if I had one with a plastic tank I would be worried.

Asking at the station might help but there could be difficulties with that?

If you go to the BP web page and enter "ethanol" in the search window it answers "BP Ultimate." Doesn't actually say anything but there is a definite implication.
Gull say there is ethanol in their 98.

Caltex should be sweet, I fill with that a lot.

Don't think Z has added ethanol yet.

Gull normally does, but there was an article a little while back where they said they were stopping adding ethanol to 91 due to a shortage, so they were focussing on their force and premium products. However, they could add it back in whenever they choose I guess.
