My engine suddenly started missing like it needs a tune up bad. It's missing under power, especially from a dead start. It may be due to gasoline I got at a station I never went to before.
I just filled up again with some good premium and it is running better, but still it's still not back to smooth.
Can someone please recommend a good gas treatment to get rid of water, maybe, or any other kind of contaminant that may have been in the gas?
Thanks.
A friend of ours who has a RX 300 with around 80-k miles on it had to replace her injectors. I was quite surprised, frankly. The claim by the local LExus dealer is that she was using an off brand gas -- from a local Enmark station. Sounds like the same problem. Hope not for your sake.
Try pepto bismal and stay away from those cheap mexican fast food joints.

I use Chem B-12 for injector type systems. Bought at any auto parts houses. They have the light treament for $2.99 and the Good Treatment Stuff for $6.99. It is for the cleaning of the injector but it will pull water out also. I run a $6.99 bottle through my Lexus LS-400 every 6 to 12 months.
