Re: [doc] Re: Injector Cleaner

In all this furore, I thought I'd share a couple of snippets.

This is what the inside of my Lex's fuel tank looked like on arrival 
from the US, and after syphoning 3/4 of a tank of 4-year-old (at least) 
american fuel

A new tank, new pump, boot, pickup filter, hoses.... and with all the 
lines blown through, the plunger in the metering head un-stuck, 10 
litres of fresh fuel and two bottles of injector cleaner... this is what 
happened

But I was there and saw what happened to James RG's. Given recent 
experience, I suspect there was crud in his tank. There's the moral. 
CHECK YER TANKS! I've got an old pump boot on the shelf if anyone wants 
to see what can happen to it too...

It is a case of "suck it and see" and I don't think there is a correct 
answer as to whether it's "worth it"
