I still have black crud in my intake screen so when I filled up this evening I added the rest of the bottle of Startron .
On the odd chance the fungus is hiding in the fuel gauge sender , I filled the tank to the tippy top then parked the car so the left side where the sender resides , is low and there won't be any air in it to - night whilst I'm sleeping and it's soaking in Startron....
I'm good for a few days before I have to fill up again , if the gallon hasn't arrived by the next time the low fuel light comes on , I'll buy the biggest bottle they have on the shelf and dump the whole thing in .
I expect to drive at least 150 miles to - morrow , mostly freeway so we'll see what happens .

Well, I have never suffered from the dreaded "fungus among-us" but in the spirit of preventive maintenance, I bought a jug of 32 oz Startron to split between my 2 faithful 1983 300d's. The $28 jug bloomed up to $38 with tax and shipping (I figured it would cost more than $6 shipping to drive out to the Riverside store and pick it up). Soon, when my wifes back is turned, her car (Martha) will get a once in a lifetime full blown detail job with all the trimmings. I'll call it an early birthday present.
