    In addition, if they have been sitting for 10+ years with fuel in them, be very careful not to trash your injection pump. If the IP is gummed up and you crank the motor over you will damage an Ambac M-50 pump and you will turn a Bosch PSU pump into scrap metal. There is a procedure to check and...
