Serowbot wrote it and I added to it -- it lives in the Tech Section.
However, each new person deserves to feel like we pay individual attention to their issues as stated, so everyone gets a personalized lead in to the Serowbot Test.
What amazes me is how very few times I have been WRONG on calling the shot -- you can't be right that often by pure chance or by luck. Serowbot's Test is very definative and useful.
Next, I am also amazed at seven (7) posts from different helper people suggesting all sorts of "stuff" before the new person has even completed the Serobot's Test (which cuts the world of problems in half and always is the VERY FIRST THING we ask a new person with fuel system issues to do).
You don't even theorize bad gas until the Serowbot's Test is done. No other alternate nothings until the Serowbot's Test is done. Let the new person focus on getting the test done.
You certainly don't overload the new person with "aging premium gas" or any of the rest of it until you know what the Serowbot's Test results are.
You are wasting the new person's time and attention with something that you are gonna shift away from just as soon as you hear the results of Serowbot's Test (no matter which way the results go, over half of these suggestions will instantly become invalid).
Just wait for the new person to come back on the Serowbot's Test .....
