[QUOTE="Nraman, post: 2493600, member: 10001"] I have a Jeep Cherokee and I found out that they secretly started mixing ethanol when I became part of a mileage research on a 4x4 forum. I kept precise records and all of a sudden I lost power (it downshifted in areas that it didn't previously) and dropped about 2.5mpg. I went nuts trying to figure out what the problem was, I even ended up replacing my O2 sensors in case they were slowing down, nothing. Then one day (Christmas eve) I read an article on ethanol. I started calling around and I found that except for some 66 stations everybody went to 10% ethanol. I even got to talk to the Shell expert in Houston, he was driving home early for Christmas and since he was officially still on the clock, he got the call on his cell. He verified the ethanol. We pay like idiots at the pump, through our taxes, loss of performance and mileage, damage to engines. Nobody ever complains. [/QUOTE]
