Ray,
What brand fuel and octane are you running? At this point, there seems to be quite a difference in ethanol blends available at the pump up here in the northeast.

I work at a Toyota dealership, and Toyota doesn't recomend using E85 on THEIR vehicles at this time due to corrosion issues.... They do use different fuel system components for vehicles produced in say, Brazil, where sugar cane based Ethanol fuel is in wide use. The biggest difference on the vehicles produced for Ethanol use is the "rubber" pieces, as stated above.
