Interesting...most of the locations in NY are unbranded gas. So which is worse? Unbranded with no ethanol, or branded with?

I've always believed (which is the key word...no facts to back it up) that the unbranded was probably lower grade (not talking octane) gasoline in terms of cleanliness, quality, etc.

I've been looking for something like this. I just put Stabil fuel stabilizer in my car....it gets a tank of gas about every 2 or 3 months...so it does a lot of sitting. I'm not sure what impact running this Stabil all the time will have on my engine...??
