Suffer? It down right sucks. You go from ~25MPG to ~15MPG.
Glad I saw this link, makes me much more comfortable now

And yes I totally agree with the MPG decrease... sucks but worth the POWAH!!!

Am I understanding that correctly?
The gunk issue really is still a bit of an unknown as to who's going to get it & the real cause.
That gentlemen who posted up indicated it was PIB's in the ethanol

Some guys feel that switching to 91 or 93 every so often is your best defense. Ive never switched.
When you can, pull the injectors just to check. Make sure you have replacement injector seals

Peace, Joe
