Excellent information. It is most helpful and I suspect you are spot on. I took the car out for a ride this afternoon and the Techron worked its magic again. After about 10 miles, the car ran perfectly! Then, after another 5 or so, the rough running occurred again.

I've got 3 issues related to your suggestions:

1) my fuel tank was replaced 15 years ago. The new tank replaced the original 15 year old tank. Is 15 years the average life span for these tanks before rust becomes a problem?

2) I have K & N watershield filters. I've read all the debates on these, but is it possible that either they are letting particles thru or that maybe they are not oiled enough to be trapping particles.

3) Apparently the stock fuel filter is not sufficient to remove particles that can clog the idle passages. Is there a filter available with greater filtering ability?

Thanks in advance for any assistance. -- Curt
