I can't be sure though. It's hard to tell once things get too chewed up.
I too would be interested in what Chris had to say.

Sorry you're having to deal with it though bigscience. What a bite in the ass.
Wait, lean roaches pistons, that cant be true.

You see my Great Uncles-Cousins-brothers-nephew (that is your sister in Arkansas) had this new Ford F150 he bought in the 70's and it got 70 miles to the gallon, he was ecstatic. After a month he got a frantic call from the Ford factory that there was an urgent recall on his new truck so he took it in and they changed the carb, after that he could only get 15 MPG. After researching it, he found that Big oil companies had paid off auto makers to not use the special carbs and cut into their profits.

See so it can't be true that lean is bad
