OK. My suggestion is that you drive all over creation searching for ethanol free fuel, because it is sooo worth the time, effort, and expense.

I run E10 all the time, no noticeable effect on mileage. 1~2% tops and that's within the normal realm of the fueling errors.

Nah, but I may tinker with some of the timing to see if that fixes it. |

Methanol is used to water down gas anyone that disagrees is a dump@$$ in denial.. I have a 440 cu in motor that has been on the road for years when this gas meth mixture came out I logged all my fill ups and the meth was a lower mileage. And if you are wondering I was getting 17.2 MPG with this truck on the highway. Go figure fallow the money... buy more gas make them more money... the BTU facts should also point this out.... also motors on meth take almost 2 times the get size to make them run.. still cant figure it out. If the meth made the fuel cheaper it would be worth while. Now the government is ramming M15 down our throuts watch you fuel mileage drop and drop and the fuel companies gross sale go up.

My owners manual states that if I use anything higher than E10, it will void my warranty. It's a 10 yr/100,000 mile warranty and I'd like to keep it  |

Its not that the people seeing the problem are conspiracy theorists, fools, or otherwise, some cars just don't adapt very well to E10.

Would it be the 84 Jeep? (you only have 2 listed)
