My '91 Ford F-150 (302)
shows most of the above symptoms, along with some strange rough running which I believe come from the truck's rather low stock compression not squeezing the Ethanol tightly enough for its specs. My '76 912E (only 7.6 t0 1!) shows the same issue.

hi-jack alert
I just finished reading An Edible History of Humanity by Tom Standage. He says that it takes 4/5 gallon of fossil fuel and hundreds of gallons of water to make 1 gal of ethanol. His point was that it is foolish to use food crops to make fuel when other forms of cellulose are readily available. This has to do with around $7 billion in subsidies. Follow the money. All I know is that it made my 1980 KZ1000 MKII with 28mm Mikuni smooth side carbs, run like crap.
