bingo!

At the 7-11 located at Powell and 44A, the pump handles for regular and non-ethanol are both black.

Exactly! We've left our Yamaha on a trickle charger and a prescribed amount of fuel stabilizer in the fuel tank and have never had a problem getting it up and running even after we've been gone for six months.

NOT open.

Not true. The red handled pumps are ethanol free and they exist at the new station.

I go by there pretty often and I see red pump handles on the pumps on the end of islands. I assume that means there will be non ethanol gas at those pumps.

Golf Cart Gas... funny, a "secret potion" sold by T V.

Been using regular unleaded gas in my Yamaha G C for years with no problems.

That’s what I was told when I bought my golf cart too

if i get the hot dog off the roller,
 

if i get the hot dog off the roller, i get non ethanol gas just sayin......

regular gas is fine. Only if you leave your cart sitting for months, do you need non-ethanol.

Before buying my first golf cart last year, I researched this very topic some to try and find out more. From Yamaha documentation, I read that in mid-2017 Yamaha changed their EFI Drive 2 engines to run with unleaded 89 octane, less than 10% alcohol fuel. My owner's manual specifically states fuel with less than 10% methanol and then follows with a separate notice to avoid methanol fuels. So how to read that?? I've been running 93 octane regular fuel now for a year and have had both great performance and no issues (we live here full time and have 2 carts 2017/2021). I can't speak to earlier models of Yamaha carts or other manufacturers, but this information I found directly from Yamaha references. In fairness, methanol tends to "suck" moisture from the air and it can accumulate in your fuel tank if left sitting for a while. All that said, if you plan on storing your cart for a period of time, like you're a snowbird, at least drain the fuel system before putting it away to prevent gunking and methanol deterioration from sitting (would be the same for pretty much any engine). Also, an additive such as Sta-Bil can help with storage. Long story short, if you use your cart regularly and don't let it sit, less than 10% methanol regular is probably OK. If you want to be super-safe and not deal with it, non-methanol works better. Either will make your Yamaha cart go zoom-zoom.
For what it's worth.

We use regular last 10 years

There is a difference between ethanol and methanol. Ethanol-enriched gas is what you will find at gas stations. I *believe* manufacturers recommend against methanol fuels.

I would be cautious about draining the fuel system on a golf cart. Do you mean somehow draining the fuel pump and injectors or draining the entire fuel tank? Either one has risks that may not be worth taking.

Incorrect. The manufacturer recommends regular unleaded fuel. It’s in the owners manual.

Per the operator of the 'little' gas station that serves golf-cart-gas only, on Marsh View, the 'little' station is closing when 7-11 opens. So that indicates that 7-11 probably will have 'the right stuff.'
