Here in California, to cut down on emissions, the fuel suppliers at state regulation will re blend the gas with ethanol during the winter. To get better firing and cleaning out the left over deposits, you need to run a few tanks of Chevron fuel or a bottle of "Techron?" to your fuel occasionally. Other states may do the same but I am not aware.

Usually, the car starts up great and idles perfect (after about 5 seconds), but sometimes lately, the idle hunts up and down (1200-700-1200, etc) for about 15 sec or until I step on the gas a bit. After that, never a problem.
What could this be? I'm planning on refreshing the complete fuel system and vacuum lines, so hopefully that cures it.
Any ideas?
