My brother who had a '91 Camper said that once he didn't fill up with 
Supreme gas.  A little while later going down the highway the thing started 
running worse and worse.  He finally had to pull into another gas station 
and add some STP and Supreme.  Again  a little further down the highway he 
topped it off with more Supreme.  It sounds like at least that the '91 bus 
is very finicky about its food.
