JBrannon:

What is the status of the two sick DSA50s with the bizarre symptoms you described in your initial post? MustangFan has written (6/7/2004) that his sick engine recovered after burning about 5 to 6 gallons of fuel. Have your friends had similar success? And if so, how many gallons of fuel and what gas/oil ratio did they use? I just discovered that I have one of the sick ones (you have described my engine’s bizarre constellation of symptoms with uncanny accuracy) and am trying to decide how to proceed.
