In Georgia, Ethanol is only about 10 cents a gallon cheaper than regular gas so it is not a bargain considering the decrease in gas mileage. We also get 10% ethanol mixed in with the regular gas. The only good thing is that our Suburbans have sensors to tell the amount of ethanol in the fuel and adjust the rate of injection accordingly.

I struggled for a long time before I went to see my friend with the good fuel filter tool. Literally one flick of the wrist and he had the filter removed with the Lisle tool.

I used a transmission jack to lower the partially filled tank. Why did they eliminate fuel tank drain plugs? I know, I know, money. I hope i never get a batch of contaminated gas! A 31 gallon tank is a beast.

I own two diesel automobiles. Diesel is about $1 more per gallon here due to our fuel tax structure. At least they get good fuel mileage.
