I'm new to the area and I was thinking about converting to E85 at some point and time.

I checked out an E85 station on Ft Lewis but I don't think it's open to the public. Is there an E85 station anywhere near Lakewood, Ft Lewis, McChord that I can even use? I just looked at a map and Portland has tons of E85 stations

 

JBLM is private. You can get a pass to enter and pump if you're visiting a military member. Otherwise, your next closest station is The Shell station in Lacey on Pacific Ave.

 

wow that sucks! So I guess no one up here uses E85?

 

Alot of us do, but most of us have to travel to get it. If you can get on post, you can get E85 at Ft. Lewis. If not, better start planning some trips down to Lacey.

 

im E85 but yeah better get some passes for base or plan the trip to lacey

 

Where do I go to get a pass to us E85 on Ft Lewis? Do you have a number I can call or an address I can go to get the pass?

Sorry for the newbie questions

 

You need to know someone first. Once you have a reason to get on post, is as easy as going in the front gate to the pass office and getting a permit. Of course, someone with a gov ID will have to pump and pay though.

I live on base and have a government ID card

I just don't know if I can roll up to the E85 pump and get gas? I drove there the other day and it seems you need a special card to use the pump

 

i think i talked to you today about e85, it is at the actual shoppette, not at the government fill up station. i get e85 there all the time! pm me fore information on how to get there or you can follow me there one day!

 

There is also this thread of E85 stations that is sticky...... Might just help!

i also stock up on e85 at the everett navy base, but sounds like you just discovered that you can get e85 at fort lewis shopette
