    Run 87 octane, max 10% ethanol, with Evinrude 2+4 Fuel Conditioner.

    Bless your heart. Most of the stations around here do not have non-ethanol fuels. The few that do have non-ethanol have it only in 89 or 91 octane, and it’s as much as 80 cents a gallon higher. I may never know whether my G2 will run on non-ethanol, as I would need to drive several miles out of my way [not toward any lake] just to get it.

    Is it okay to run 91 octane in the G2?

    Yes, if you feel like wasting money. No gain 91 over 87. 87 is manufacturer recommended octane.
