Default Best app for e85?

What is the best app for up to date info on where to find e85? I'm looking for an app that people are actually using. e85 stations come and go often enough that the apps I have tired so far are junk.

I found that every app that I tried was junk too. I was hoping to use it while traveling. Around me good E85 is consistent at Speedway. Meijer also carries it, but it generally is much lower E content like a winter blend all year long.

I'd be interested if there was a new and improved app that was reliable as well.

I loaded "Alternate Fuel Station Locator" today and it seems up to date so far. Just click on the triple dots at the top right of the app and then click on settings and setup the record count, radius and fuel type settings and then search by zip code.

nope. There is a station that has had e85 for at least 4 months (could be much longer) and it isn't showing in that app

I have been using some of the Speedway E85 here in West TN, I purchased 10 gallons and put it in 5 gallon fuel jugs about 3 weeks ago. Just out of curiosity I tested some of it last night, I was very impressed that it is right at 85%.


OP I have downloaded the Alternate fuel app as well, but I have not verified its accuracy yet.

Back in 2021, I was running a google sheet for local E85 stations and my followers would send me pics of their tests to keep E% on the sheet updated. I decided to turn this idea into a national app. Currently has over over 4900 e85 stations listed and looking for early users to help test and submit E% date. Would love some feedback from the community! https://e85scout.com/
