Message	injectors to fail on our cars. You probably had some kind of injector failure which was causing the poor performance. I have talked to a few pro drag racers about ethanol and possible injector failure and everyone of them flips a switch and gets a pissed off attitude about ethanol. They all say ethanol is crap and only causes issues and they all wish it wasnt in gas. I know there is no way to avoid ethanol these days so just be ready to replace injectors eventually or try the killing power to them deal.
