So here's my feeble attempt to evaporate the intrigue..

LOP burned "clys"? Perhaps not..
Thirsty for fuel? Perhaps not..

What actually happened, Jaba?

I don't know for sure yet, but it could easily be darned mud wasps in the tank breathers.

It was something of this nature at least as the lack of power was not due an engine fault or fuel available as I understand it.
