I found this document today, it's an interesting read:

cool, good find!

Great find! Reading as we speak.

Having been an owner of one of these vehicles, I find this document extremely interesting.

Thanks! I bookmarked this for later reading. :)

So---it was the d-bags who put those pieces of junk on the 85's!

Interesting report!!
Testing those vehicles at only 36K mi was clearly premature. They should have done a second test at 50K or 75K mi then reported findings.
Makes me happy I own a Federal version '85 with conventional air filter and no NTO (Nasty Trap Oxidizer).
I'll wager there is a report that was done to study the ULSD fuel that we are paying through the nose for now, thanks to environmental folks :mad:
