Message	A thread on a local Z forum ( La-Z-Link ) raises a possible explanation on the failure of old-style fuel injectors. Doing a Google search on ethanol and injector failures brings up some interesting reading. Of course, there is much debate on this, since those with a vested interest in ethanol-blended fuels will debate these claims. So for those who have suffered repeated injector failures, do you know if your local gas supply is ethanol-blended? Charles Carbon Black '95 TT '02 Honda CR-V "Bustermobile"
