Thank you so much for bringing this up to the board!!! This is just the kind of "real world" data that people need to push this technology forward!!

This is also the first I've heard of a fuel system problem with WVO.

Sounds shocking, and I'm not sure that the damage could be prevented easily given the already robust composition of the hardware involved, but a few questions are in order:

What's the history of the vehicle prior to WVO mix use?

Did he get all of the WVO from the same source?

How many miles on the blend?

What is the normal lifespan of a set of injectors?

How fast did performance degrade?

Is it possible that a defect in the fuel filtration system or engine oil system allowed abrasives into the fuel system or fuel rail (I've seen some abrasive looking particles lurking at the bottom of the filter bowl after fuel filter changes myself)?

I've been running almost exclusively WVO for over 1 year and 15k miles. If your shop isn't that far away, would you have any interest in just pulling my injectors and/or some other's injectors and doing a comparison?

As far as I'm concerned, a set of injectors every few years is a small price to pay for the other benefits of WVO, but it is important to find out if the damage is preventable or a one-off event.
