I have asked for drop sheets at EVERY gas station I have ever gotten e-85 from and I get the same stupid look from the person behind the counter, it matches the same stupid look I get from the managers that I request to talk to.
I have had success calling the corporate offices and getting the information from the fuel purchasing folks, especially from smaller stations that carry it....
I dont have any problems getting the drop sheets...
the first time I did have to explain what they were
but I buy from 2 places but mostly from Meijer

should I use distilled water when testing E85 or just tap water
tried it both ways
when I used distilled water the test showed 85%
and when I used tap water it showed 75%
I normally use distilled water, just to avoid any issue.
But I have tested the same batch both ways
(my house has its own deep well),
and it wasn't any different.
But I don't have chlorine or other chemicals in my water, if that has anything to do with it.
