The Ethanol is causing it...

Every single person I've gotten to switch over to E0 has reported no chirps since.

Chirps came back the second I started my car after putting in the ethanol gas.

Later that day after I had burned that gas away and it was running on the E0 gas the crickets were gone.

Its the ethanol dude.

Shell is BSing you.

Edit: Care to comment on my car with 12k miles, all ethanol fill ups and silent as anyone could ever hope their 86 to be?
