Where to get gas and what kind?
Do you pull into a regular gas station with your golf cart and pump regular gas or do you have to go to a special golf cart filling station? We are near Colony Plaza.

I have an older cart, and I use regular gas, however, I would read the owners manual, I am sure it says 'regular unleaded gas with up to 10-15% ethanol'. I have been involved with rebuilding older cars for years, and the removal of lead caused problems with exhaust valves, while the addition of ethanol caused problems with some components of the fuel system. I cannot imagine that cart makers would not have designed their products to use regular pump gas, as gasoline with NO ethanol is hard to get. JMHO

Marathon Gas Station at Pinellas Plaza has recreation gas.

From a 2015 Yamaha owners manual:
Recommended fuel: Unleaded gasoline Fuel tank capacity: 22.0 L (5.8 US gal) Gasoline-based fuels containing more than 10% ethanol are not recommended. |
Been using regular gas in my carts for 16 years, no problems.

Seems none of the regular gas users mention fuel addictive, do you not use any? I used regular gas in my Yamaha cart from new in 2011 until 2015 and used the Sta-Bill addictive as instructed by the Yamaha store. Once I didn't use my cart for 3 months and it ran sluggish for quite a while even though I used the addictive. I tried the non-ethanol gas (recreation gas) at the Marathon Station on 466A and the cart has run great ever since. It costs more per gallon but no more addictive needed, that $10 a year, and the cart runs smoother.

As soon as the station in The Landing opened I switched from using gas from the normal stations (along with the above mentioned additive) to the slightly more expensive gas sold there and now also in Spanish Springs. My 2014 took the switch very graciously (and happily) and my 2017 has seen nothing but the newer gas and both ran/run perfectly! I recommend the "new" gas.
