Another thing Street.. Most of the US is still on "winter blend" fuel. That fuel has a much higher "vapor density" than the "summer blend" stuff. That means the fuel is much more prone to flashing off at lower temperatures. Under cold weather conditions that's a good thing... but ... when it warms up outside it can be a real pain in the arse. Now you have fuel that wants to "vaporize" in your fuel lines, as well as you intake tract/combustion chamber. You can check with your local gasoline suppliers to find out if you're still on the winter blend stuff. Believe, me, that can make a SIGNIFICANT difference.
