I would decide based on how quickly you go thru gas. If you turn it over frequently all year long, then it is not worth the extra cost. You won't feel the difference. If fuel sits in your car for months, then I would go with the non-ethanol. I run non-ethanol because i only drive this car 5,000 miles per year and it is stored for winter.

I live where marine fuel is available and I can get 91.5 octane pure gas. Now besides water is it not also better for the seals?
