Just my .02
interesting thought ...
yes i did ... i ran two cans
maybe a better procedure would be to replace the lines first... especially if you have no idea of the age of some parts.

i'm rebuilding the injectors now ... and so things are off ... and i will indeed put on new lines.

thanks for the pointer ... i think it makes total sense.

greezer is going to do them for me.
i want to try and do them at some point ... but dark winter nights and work make it a lower priority...

i'm on a business trip ... so i figured i'd treat myself and have something fun waiting for me when i get home!

cheers
