All the stations I know of are here in the Albany/Colonie area. Don’t trust Google! investigate yourself. I took a trip to LG on a half tank last week and got burned by a website that said that three different stations had E85 that did not. I ended up hypermiling it back to Colonie anyway. I never leave this area without a FULL tank now.

Do not expect to save a lot of money over 93 octane. Your fuel mileage will drop between 20-30% less than with gasoline. The advantage is really saving money and having versatility over race gas. I just like paying $40 to fill my tank instead of $50+

Here is a good read for you. It is good to understand what you are getting into before making the switch.

Alot of Mobil stations have it but usually just the ones that have been redone within the last few years.

Cumberland Farms in Clifton Park has it too.

Eh, it’s right off of exit 23 and exit 18. I know this 100%.

[http://www.e85refueling.com/](http://www.e85refueling.com/) Call first. And more important check the ethanol content…I don’t feel like giving an ethanol lesson right now, but search my posts and you’ll find everything you need.

No problem. FWIW, the station at exit 23, and the station across from Keeler Honda are sitting at about 83 percent right now.

Good deal. Get yourself a shake tester and measure the content on a regular basis.

Didn’t know that. What other stations does this person own, and how many different ethanol “trucks” service Upstate NY (some non-Mobil stations sell it)?

He also owns the SUNY Albany one.

Don’t know how many trucks service E85 but I can find out which one does his stations. I know it’s a separate delivery from regular gas but that’s somewhat obvious.

Let me know, thanks. If you can, also let me know if the exit 23 station get’s it’s higher blends of ethanol later in the season vs the Keeler station, and if the ethanol content drops sooner in the season at exit 23 vs the other stations. Basically, anything you can tell me about when the content at the exit 23 station changes would be great! I’m figuring it out on my own, but the more info the better.
