One of those two people tells a story of someone that bought gami
injectors, ran LOP, and then cooked four of six cylinders.
Another example of how a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
*Improper* LOP operating technique can harm cylinders, even cause
catastrophic failure by detonation.
As can *proper* ROP operating techniques...particularly the 50ROP as
recommended by some POH's.
The biggest problem is getting LOP, then enriching "just to be on the safe
side", usually right into the worst possible operating range.
