Warning:

We may have picked up poor gas at that crummy gas station we gassed up at.I had a bad feeling about that one, and almost didnt gas up ther because of it or just a little.

I currently have some drivabilty problems consistent with recent dirty gas.

I will replace my fuel filter tommorrow and let everyone know.

Fred...:)

Well, everyone can have a differnt slug of gas and some cars are more sensitive to those things than others.

I only burnt off a fraction of the 21 gallons I bought at that station.So it sat for a while i my tank..Still not sure what it is but this seems the best explanation so far.

21 Gallons?!?! Damn! How big is your tank? I was almost empty and I could only get about 15 gallons in there. DTE was saying like 21 miles left, but I think it calculates a buffer zone in there to make people fill up earlier (as I have read the tank size on mine should be close to 18 gallons).

I still had 1.5 gallons left...

So 22.5 gallons, :evilhaha

Fred...

PS: your tank holds exactly 18.5 gallons which is pretty decent size
