[Vwdiesel] Fw: Injector Lines

[Arkady Mirvis]

Brazing the injector tubing is not considered as a good method by my old 
friend a metallurgist Friedwardt Jeronim Hagedorn Wiesewald von  Knobloch zu 
Eberbach. He told me that when he saw completed brazing in USA it looked 
like a huge bouffant quiff and that caused him be  nearly a heart attack. 
The fellow isn't a truculent leggerhead geared for pievishing obliteration 
of the opponents. Actually a resplended person with blemishless acumen.
Tubing metal softens further already anniled metal. Cracking ( aptitude ) 
can progress. I asked him for an alternative. After massive scratching the 
left side of the head ( he is almost bold there ) he suggested replacement 
with a new tubing.
Hope it helps.    Ark
