If the pump attendant told you that he sells gas with no alcohol content he is or lying or humoring you. A Thai calls all gas benzene. 95 and 91 have both an alcohol content of 10% and is widely sold. E20 = 20% alcohol content and easy to find. E85 = at the moment difficult to find as most pumps are located in Bangkok. So why it is called 95 and 91 but not E10 ? What is the octane of E20 ?

See EPPO web page for types and prices of fuel sold in Thailand http://www2.eppo.go.th/retail_prices.php (95 Benzine is 'ULG 95 RON' You are correct, I put 95 (yellow)Benzine in just the other day, PTT, they also had the orange 95 Gasohol pump.

I use "gasohol crap 91", after the 95 benzene got fased, out in a 27 year old car which still has a carburetor. No problems. Well I can still buy it , so you are wrong, Caltex and PTT sell it where I live..

After asking PTT by e-mail did they assure me that gasoline 95 is still sold at their PTT gas pumps. Only that I or my Thai wife never see or saw it sold at any pump station. When asking the attendants answer allways is "no have". Oh well, TIT.

According to PTT head office gasoline 95 is still sold. The number in E20 or E10 is the percent of alcohol in the gasoline so it is either octane 95 or 91 with 20% alcohol (ethyl) added.

So you did not believe the numerous posters here saying you were wrong ?

I guess it's only in BKK where it is sold. Where I live there are 2 PTT gas pumps + a Esso pump and neither one is selling the stuff.
