Hey guys, I was driving today and I noticed that when I came to a stop my VX was idling at 1,500 RPM. The longer I set the lower the RPMS, what's with that? I did put in a full tank of regular unleaded fuel rather than the mid grade, that could be it.

Do I need to get some of that fuel injector cleaner and pour into the tank? I am going to Oklahoma City and I don't have time to stop by ZuZu. I had a similar problem with my Jeep and that fuel injector stuff worked on it.

Hi TC,
The Fuel Injector cleaner surely is worth a try. Beyond that be sure & change out the fuel filter. Its cheap & a easy maintenance item to do.
The regular fuel should not have anything to do with it as that is what the engine is tuned for.
Good luck!

Where is the fuel filter?

that would be located on the passenger side rear underneath by the tire. Looks like an aluminum beer can with a tube and hose on each end
