With only 2 E85 location(s), Salina isn't a full-coverage flex-fuel market. Kansas grows plenty of ethanol feedstock, but its public E85 network is small and widely scattered, with Casey's and Jump Start operating the large majority of stations. Plan fill-ups in Wichita where possible, and call ahead before relying on the local pump.
Finding E85 in Salina
Salina sits where I-70 meets I-135, which makes its two E85 pumps more important to travelers than the small number suggests. Both belong to Rod's convenience stores: Rod's #8 at 2140 W Crawford St, on the west side close to I-135, and a second store at 220 E Magnolia Rd on the south end of town. West of here the I-70 corridor gets sparse — Colby is the only other I-70 town in western Kansas with a listing — so flex-fuel drivers crossing Kansas should treat Salina as a planned stop rather than an afterthought. Wichita, about 90 miles south on I-135, is the nearest larger market.
Key highway access: I-70, I-135, US-81
