I am still under warranty so a 6 month OCI is maybe a bit pushing it given its short tripping coupled with winter.
I was wondering about the slight rise in iron (it is the highest in many UOAs; unit average is 7) and I now recall that I used a half bottle or so of GM injection cleaner at some point in this most recent interval
.
After draining the PP I am back using GC, using up my supply.
