You might want to check out the many sites on the web that point you to stations with ethanol-free gas. 

For Example: http://pure-gas.org/

Switch to non-ethanol mixed gas.....you'll get a bit better mileage. 

I used to get 18-19 in my syncro until all the regular gas got ethanol.  Now it is 
right on 17 like yours.

Can I get any tips to improve the mileage I am getting?  91GL Auto with 
192K getting about 17mpg at most...maybe 20 downhill. Never had injectors 
replaced.  Just thinkin. Thanks.
