Pretty much Chevron and Shell both work from my experience but it still randomly occurs. They came back stronger when I took my Unichip off FWIW.. waiting for my OFT to come to see if they can silence the crickets again.

Only used Chevron and no crickets as of 1200 miles so far...I do have that clicking sound, but no cricket chirping.

*knock on wood*

Top Tier Gasolines

The Gasoline you buy at a Chevron Gas Station may of been produced at a Shell Refinery and vice versus, by any number of So Cal Oil Refiners or Gasoline imports. The detergent additives used by each of the brands are the difference.

Ultimately what silenced mine was a new HPFP Lol. Silent now.
