... and plan to use the ethanol free gasoline in it because I’ve been told that the number one cause of failure for them was using ethanol laced gasoline.

Believe it. I went through 4 weed eaters, and a leaf blower before I figured out what was killing them. They didn't last a season (soeveral only a few weeks!), and I was beginning to think I had some sort of small engine killer aura before I figured it out. Since I have switched to "pure" gas, I have now gotten a weed eater to last over a year, and my chain saw has been working good for several years.

Here is a link to a website that shows the locations of gas stations selling non-ethanol gasoline.

Alas,

None in my area.

My small engine guy is saying the ethanol content is going to 15% next year.

His rules -
Sealed gas cans always. Ethanol absorbs water.
High test only !
Use ONLY FD Grade 2 stroke motor oil. This is the highest grade. If it doesn’t have FD on the label. DO NOT USE.

Use only fuel you can burn in 30 days. After that, dump into the car and buy fresh when you need it.

I use it with PRI and have fallen out of grace with Stabil fuel treatment. I have found that PRI can treat even 4 year old gasoline. YMMV. I do try to cycle with winter blend, rather than E10.
