Default Re: Big mystery finally solved...and who deserves the prize?

Sure sounds like typical ethanol garbage gas problems. My car does the same thing if I have 10% ethanol garbage in the gas and the temp is 70* or above. When I use the good gas, (which is almost all the time) I never have a problem. Ethanol gas boils in the carb and/or fuel line and causes the lean mixture you've described.
