One thing to try if it is even still available is real gas. When the stations here stopped selling real gas and converted over to ethanol my mileage on the Rubicon dropped from 24 mpg to 21 mpg. On the beater car we used to fill up about every 6 to 7 days now it is every 5 days. We live out in the boonies at 8000 ft above sea level and any direction I go is either up or down.

I noticed the performance level as well from the switch. The hills I used to be able to cruise up with no trouble, now not so much.

Thanks .gov for the earth saving move. Not!
