Mike,
  Unfortunately things do not remain perfect after a period of use.......Many
are flying on used injectors and they will seep enough fuel between flights
to flood the engine while holding +/- 40 psi residual pressure........Therefore
the bypass is a simple and foolproof fix requireing nothing from the pilot or
driver in the case of an automobile.....
