Yup, I for one have certainly "been there, done that".  Talk about "driving
a BOMB"!  That is the main reason why I am absolutely positive that I live a
charmed life.  That's also what caused me to switch to the Weber.  (However,
I have since switched back to a ZS for emissions testing requirements.)
Your gas mileage improves dramatically when the gasoline is vaporized and
ignited in the cylinders rather than on the hot manifold out in the open :)

Not to mention the possibility of gas dripping directly on that hot
manifold...
