    yep, I've heard of this before. Like Ford Focus's and some other cars have such FRAGILE fuel pumps that people had theirs going bad at 5 or 10k just from using gas that had SLIGHTLY too much sulfur in it. It's really ridiculous.

    My late model will barely pass the emmisions test with our shitty fuel,
    with American fuel it bearly reads on the scale.
