can't say that i am

 

Any possibility this could be a bad tank of gas?

 

i'd say yes, it's possible

 

Yeah but then, it would run bad all the time, until good gas is pumped in.

 

yeah i though of that, but since temperature
is in the equation, i had to allow for the
possibility

 

You make a good point, and that leaves me with nothing else to add.
Hopefully, his dealer has good mechanics and don't make a project out of this thing.[8D]

 

agreed and no 200 mile road trips

 

Yeah really[8D]. Or back seat break ins.

 

Thanks for the reassurance pascal. I have tried leaving the key in the on position for a couple of seconds before cranking the engine but that did not help. If the dealership can't find anything wrong, is it really something that serious? It has zero affect on the performance of the car.
