I have never had this problem with my coach, but I'm not driving my coach.

Yesterday and a bit the day before the coach started stumbling on each take off after stopping for a light.

After initial stumbling the engine would power up and run ok til next stop.

Tanks were full of fresh central and N/W Indiana gas. Driving on the level with ambient temps less than 90*

Coach has no elec pump and since it's not mine I'm not going to install one while on the road.

Any suggestions for temp relief other than keeping the tanks full and driving at night when it's cooler?

I'll buy premium at next fill up.

Any additive that may help?
