I run a fuels and lube testing lab in Western, Pa., "Parctech.com" if you are interested. We have done extensive work on the recent gasoline problems. The problem is being caused by elemental or free sulfur levels that are corrosive to silver. This occured when refiners had to meet EPA lower level sulfur specs on gasolines. During the removal process they basically took out the good sulfur and left the H2s version behind.

The next problems we will see will be injector guming, which is related to this low sulfur scenario also. Their is no fix, but rather an additive to neutralise the corrosive sulfur.
