He might be correct.

The '86 cracked a #6 fuel line on a trip to NC. It ran on 5 for about 150 miles or so. After the new line was installed, it had a pronounced injector knock. I was really PO'd because I thought I screwed up the prechamber by running the cylinder without any fuel for all that distance.

But, after the return trip to NY........about 675 miles.......all was well again.

Damned if I can explain it............
