Until recently, the store sold non-ethanol gasoline. Now I believe their fuel is blended with 10% ethanol. This will not harm most 2-cycle engines (i.e., outboard motors), but I read that you shouldn't mix ethanol gas with the old non-ethanol gas. They recommend purging all the old fuel from your tanks and lines before filling up with the new stuff. These links have more info.
