Dealing with 10% ethanol blended gas - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok, so my truck really hates the gas ive been putting in lately. Whenever I give it just a little extra gas, the valves chirp and my dad says its because of the ethanol blended gas. Now I can get non-ethanol fuel at an indian reservation, but its not exactly close and readily available. Im sure that I am not the only one experiencing these problems due to the ethanol blended $#!T gasoline because of the federal mandates that started a couple years ago.

What have you guys done to deal with this? Know any good ethanol treatment products? Im not about to allow my 400 to knock from the ethanol blended fuels
