No! Neither! Shell stations have 91 octane in NE. 91 with E10 /= 91 octane.

Default Yeah, though Lincon you have to drive like 2 miles to actually get to the town

When I drive through that horrible state, I never once found a station that didn't have 91 or better.

Then again I went only with Shell.

Default I have hit the Mobil in Omaha. I after a few bad experiences with my 7A motor in IA...

I have avoided IA gas like the plague. I believe some of the IA stations have a higher ethanol content than posted. One tank I could barely maintain the speed limit the car started running so poorly after filling up.
