Biggest killer of injection pump is water, not crud, which will just shut your engine down when your filters are appropriately clogged. If you are unfortunate enough to fill up at a station where you get inches of water at the bottom of your tank, the only thing that will save your IP is a functional water in fuel alarm or a floating pickup in your tank (until the pickup drops to the level of the water).
