Customer B buys 1 gallon of E10 from the same pump.
Customer C buys 1 gallon of E10 from the same pump and puts it in his chainsaw. If that gallon ruins Customer C’s chainsaw, it’s legally Customer B’s fault? What the fuck?
Forcing B to buy more gas than he might want, to protect the customer after him, because of the customer that came before him, is some horseshit.
Imo, the death of the chainsaw falls on customer C’s for running subpar fuel in a 2stroke to begin with (the most likely series of events: seals go, develops air leak, carb runs lean, rings bind)
Ethanol-free fuel, 92 octane (you’ll know it’s right cuz it’s like $6/gallon- don’t buy the premixed shit in the store, find a proper station) properly mixed with oil, can run all day, never a problem.
In the given example, is the gas station not forcing Customer B to purchase more gas than they may want or need? What if I have a chainsaw with a 1 gallon fuel tank? Now I need to not only buy more gas than I can use, but a container to safely store it in. (It’s also illegal to dispense gasoline to/from an unauthorized container!) Now if I use my chainsaw once or twice a year, I also get to dump out that extra gasoline because it’s gone bad by the time I need to use it again.
Hold the fuck up.
Customer A buys 10 gallons of E15.
Customer B buys 1 gallon of E10 from the same pump.
Customer C buys 1 gallon of E10 from the same pump and puts it in his chainsaw. If that gallon ruins Customer C’s chainsaw, it’s legally Customer B’s fault? What the fuck?
Forcing B to buy more gas than he might want, to protect the customer after him, because of the customer that came before him, is some horseshit.
The gas companies bought a law to exempt themselves from liability.
What, again?
Story of everything…
Maybe these climate change purveyors should be forced to separate E10 and E15 dispensers.
Source?
This fucking law right here.
Legally customers C fault. He needed to buy 4 gallons and fucked himself.
Imo, the death of the chainsaw falls on customer C’s for running subpar fuel in a 2stroke to begin with (the most likely series of events: seals go, develops air leak, carb runs lean, rings bind)
Ethanol-free fuel, 92 octane (you’ll know it’s right cuz it’s like $6/gallon- don’t buy the premixed shit in the store, find a proper station) properly mixed with oil, can run all day, never a problem.
But that’s just my opinion
Why is it bad to have rules which prevent harm to everyone?
Nobody is forcing anyone to buy anything. You ever see a 2oz bottle of Coke?
That doesn’t prevent harm to everyone it just allows gas stations to use a single pump and shift the liability onto consumers.
If you can’t see the practicality, that’s on you.
Boo. If you’re gonna troll, at least make it interesting.

Do you have an ethanol chainsaw? Maybe an ethanol weed whacker? Got some links to these small ethanol motors?
E10 and E15 mostly aren’t ethanol. They’re 90% and 85%, respectively, gasoline, with the rest being ethanol.
Go on.
That’s a pretty stupid comparison. These aren’t prepackaged containers, and that’s a pretty key part of the terrible point you were trying to make.
Ok then, try to book an attorney for 10 minutes only.
