I have a 95 GM suburban that sputters with any gas but Chevron Premium. As you probably know, this is currently > $3.60/gallon. I've tried other brands, even premium and the thing runs like crap, no pickup and sputtering on hills. I have added octane boosters, they help with premium gas from costco and other stations, but only Chevron premium runs virgin. Don't even think about something other than premium... :crying:

So, any diagnosis of what may be the problem and any referrals for a decent mechanic in the Salt Lake area that I can trust to check it out further?

Thanks in advance...
