Default You do not need to use ethanol-free “Rec‑90" gas in your cart

Two of my neighbors just bought new Yamaha carts, and their dealer told them they have to use Rec 90 fuel. Now they’re driving 25 minutes just to fill up.

These carts are built to run on regular 87-octane gas with up to 10% ethanol, which is exactly what every gas station in Florida sells.

The only time Rec 90 might make sense is if you’re planning to store the cart for several months without using it. Even then, you can stick with regular gas, just add a fuel stabilizer and you're good to go.
