Hi guys..
Ok so as I changed the fuel filter the other, I noticed that the fuel was quite dark
And now a light bulb in my head has gone off!
The car stinks when running (like varnish aka. old fuel) and has troubles first starting up
So this is pointing me to all the signs of old fuel! I dont know the last time fuel was put in, but silly me assumed the last owner did not long ago
And here I was thinking it was running rich :|
Anwyays..
What can I now do to remediate any potential "blockages" or "damage" to the injectors?
Can I just run some injector cleaner through it?
Im going to drain the old fuel straight from the pump, and fill up with new 98
I drove the car home, and a few times around block. Never throttled it hard.. Should be ok?
