I don't think I have any Chrysler vehicles?? I am not fond of Chrysler its why I won't buy a Cherokee newer than 1988.

4 fords. 2 AMC's 1 Suzuki 2 Chevy's 1 Plymouth (is that Chrysler?) and a Kia

These results are NOT from washed gas!. They are from regular PUMPED E0 87 octane gasoline.

I did the washing as a test STRICTLY to determine if it was worth the 3 hours round trip $15 in tolls and $140 in prepaid gasoline.

I got "slightly" smaller increases (compared to real E0) in FE with the washed gas but it was enough to make the trip up to womelsdorf with the trailer and 5 gallons cans worth a try.

I am reluctant to do long term "washing" until I can figure out the ramifications to my engines.
