Fuel issues
Just to inform anyone who hasn't seen the fed(Obama) is enacting through the department of transportation a new fuel mix. The new standard fuel mix is going to be 20 to 30%(current fuel is 10%)ethanol required. Vehicles made before 2001 will be most affected by this, consumer reports and other agencies have mentioned performance loss along with irreversible damage resulting in cylinder head replacement. This damage is rapid according to the article.
