When I bought my car it had never seen a drop of bio. Then I began to introduce it 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 percent at a time. Now I'm 100%. But along the way, I lost count of primaries changed. I got to a point where I put an extra one in front of the one there. I changed at least 5 or 6 secondaries, and had the tank screen replaced (it was covered in lots of goo). I've said before, if I had it to do all over again, I may consider dropping the tank and having it cleaned.

I would also keep an eye on fuel lines--the stock stuff doesn't hold up to bio--especially the injector return lines.

Good luck.
