There is a LOT of bad fuel going around. I think now that the price is down they don't feel bad selling us the scum of the bottom of the tanks! Has it been setting? Do you drive it a lot? What carb (s)? Check the fuel filter.

Durring the height of the oil ripoff, station owners were getting caught watering their fuel down (literally).

Seems the new 'oxy' blends are allowd (legally) a higher water content by volume. So some of the station owners were 'helping' the bottom line by upping that percentage some.

Could be you got some of that.
