Some of you guys are so dramatic %)
I run the cheapest gas I can find in my 2100-equipped rig (pretty much always E10 or E15 these days) and it does a lot of sitting anymore since it has been several years since it last pulled DD duty.
It fires right up every time, no problem. You need to give it 5-10 seconds for the electric fuel pump to fill the bowl if it has been sitting for more than a couple of weeks, but it's no worse than waiting for glow plugs on a cold diesel. If you guys don't believe me I can even do a video. The drive-ability is excellent and I don't have to constantly screw around with the tuning as many of you suggest. I even tuned it without an O2 gauge (would have been way easier to use one though).
If you do go EFI, I don't see why you would run anything other than an Explorer EFI setup on a cruiser, non-high performance build. Cheap, plentiful, all factory parts available everywhere, and works great. My 2¢.
