Without attempting to complicate this subject further, there is the issue that some fuels ( same octane rating) do not contain ethanol. Around here those are referred to as 'marine fuel', because the absence of ethanol helps prevent moisture collecting in the fuel tanks. Those few stations that carry marine fuel also carry the common variety with ethanol.
