And I'll fess up. Went into the office this morning but needed to get gas first with the 03. Was distracted and put in 87 octane instead of my normal 91.

About 20 miles down the road started getting misfires on 1, 2 & 6. This car has never had an issue and it happening right after getting gas has me thinking.

Will be pumping out the tank in the 03 and putting that in the Jeep or the tractors tonight & tomorrow but it's really got me thinking the issue is fuel, fuel vapors/cannister...or fuel system related, just weird to get the same thing on a car that never had any issues. Given that its also not the car I usually drive it is very likely that 87 was put in the 00.
