Can I use gas without ethinal in my vehicle? I now use it in my lawn mower and snow blower. Carburetor in my lawn mower used to get dirty with ethinal. Since using straight gas, no more trouble. Car has 115,000 miles on it.

Yes, no problem. Keep in mind, the car was designed to run on 10% ethanol fuel so it will indeed run fine with as well as without.

As Mustang said the vehicle was designed to use ( Ethanol ) so no need to spend the extra money and also when traveling find non - ethanol fuel is difficult.
