ILblog,

I have seen Prist eat fuel tanks before if the concentration was too high. On
different aircraft types with bladder style tanks.
(I mean way too high. I can't bring to mind the proper ratio but I want to say
something very low like .16% is good and the one case was caused by a bad
injector on a fuel truck which left globs of Prist in the tank.)

As a side note, are you not draining your sumps before the first flight of the day in order to eliminate any water from condensation etc?
I would like to put that question to the general populace on here as well. Over
the years, the number of people I have met who cannot be bothered boggles
the mind.(That does not include operations in sub-zero temperatures for those who were going to bring it up.)
