    M109 Hercules Injection Pump Wide Open on Start Need cleaning recommendation.

    Just looked and I see you actually started a 4 th post (the first on for this issue) and I will now merge it here too. It helps when people know the full story(in one thread). Also noticed your first post was in the 5 ton forums. Pay attention to where you place your threads/posts.
