I don't know what to tell you. I do have questions, though: Where did you get your E0 Gas? Do they advertise as such? Have you tested it to ensure it isn't cut with ethanol? Since you want to monitor the facts here so closely to pick out the nuances, I just want to be sure that everything is on the straight and level here.
If anything, you would be the anomaly here. From what I have read, most of the owners who switched to E0 have lost their crickets (new figure of speech?). Hence why I would check beyond a website certification that the E0 I was getting was
actually E0.
However, I agree with your last point--temperature may factor in here as much as the fuel does. To avoid nitpicking and get back to the big picture, though, lets face the fact that getting a new HPFP does indeed lose the crickets at least in the short term.
