Question E85 stations in the south bay?

I'm about to go e85 pretty soon and I was wondering where I can find some good quality e85. I've read that blends vary from pump to pump. The only place I'm familiar with is the chevron off of montague, would you recommend fueling up there? Or would you suggest a different location? Thanks iclub

So far the Propel stations have all been pretty consistent for me. I typically fill up at the same station every time, but the times I have had to use one of their other pumps I have had no problems.

You can find their locations here:

Thats my local station - see you there.
No issues at all with the quality, have filled there exclusively since my switch last Aug, never felt anything wrong with how the car runs.

Me too..I hardly drive my car anymore though. Never had problems with the fuel but using the pump there somethimes takes awhile. E85 pump is between to other pumps.
