I go to my local speed shop and buy VP 110. A little pricey but engine starts
quick and runs great.

Dean,
I replaced the fuel hoses
on my 71 Midget 3 times in a single year.
The hose was dissolving away on
the inside and blocking up the jets
in the float bowls as well as blocking
the fuel filters. I didn't
have this problem when I could buy gas without
ethanol added to it.
The hose was new (modern) hose from NAPA and Advance
Auto. I finally
replaced all the hose sections with VW braided hose no
problems since.
