And you’re not the only one of that opinion. And I see how that definitely COULD make sense. I just don’t know enough to say it certainly does work out that way.

Thanks for the thought. Thing is, it’s not hard to do (tune for both E85 and 93), and not hard to do it at the same time and place. That somehow became the issue in some others’ eyes, but it wasn’t...
