Title: Wrong Fuel Injector Cleaner used
Post by: bad_robot on August 24, 2011, 04:53:34 AM

Added 340 ml of hydrocarbon oil treatment (friction proofing) to the petrol (20litre) instead of injector/petrol treatment. Silly me.
Should I empty the petrol tank and replace all petrol or just ignore this.

Doesn't seem like a lot of contaminant...personally I'd risk it & run it through the motor.

Should be fine.
