Your story sounds quite familier. At the same time you were having your problem I was coming from St. Paul, MN heading to Reno, NV and was having very similiar troubles. It turned out to be Ethenol vaporlock. The cure is to not buy any fuel with over an 87 octane rating. It seems to be popular now to blend ethenol into fuel to immitate higher octane and without labeling the pumps as such. The problem of vaporlock is enhanced with elevation. Additionally I added.1(one tenth) of a gallon of diesel per tankful. Theory is it either changes the viscosity of the fuel or coates the inside of the tank, lines and injectors to stop the ethonel from dissolving the rust that is inherently in the tank and lines, or both. Feel free to contact me if you desire further clarification. Lots of luck. |
