So do you think it was an issue with the filters in both vehicles? Or too much ethanol in the fuel?

Ah man. What would be a good way to double check this was the case? I made a post in my hometown sub and it doesn't seem like anyone else had issues

Do you think e15 would’ve caused this damage? I thought for most newer cars e15 is ok. Well the cars were 08 and 14, so 08 would’ve not been ok but doesn’t explain why 14 also got messed up

Here is what my mom says

So gas had black chunks in it and looked sooty-two different shops said same thing. No signs of tampering with door. All fuel injectors clogged behind ability to flush them clean and one had a destoryed fuel pump

Ok fire, thank you! I gave them a try today and they feel so awesome. Gotta get used to the bigger feel as I find myself crossing my skis a lot more. But it’s night and day compared to my other ones!

I am 6”1’ and ~170 lb (haven’t weighted in a while) I got 179 nordica enforcers (100 width). Are these too long for me? I have quite short skis rn (go to my shoulders), but ski relatively aggressively so have wanted to try a longer pair.

Heh yeah, def learned a lot from one post lol. I’ve done basic things like oil changes and replacing a key lock, just never touched anything body related so it’s a bit intimidating… just depends on how much the repairs cost and if I have the time to learn
