That's what I did but I used probably a gallon to gallon and half of berryman and had 3 filters in the lines that I continually cleaned out. Yet I still have crud floating in my lines somewhere, probably the accumulator since it is the only part I have not replaced or opened up. But when I opened my tank I only recovered a small portion of the fuel pump and no rubber lines at all. And I had to scrape the varnish off the walls of the tank. Oh and I didn't use the car's pump I used a cheap electric one that didn't matter if it got destroyed.
