I can't say.
I don't know if its a 5% problem or a 100% problem.

I would guess that an Internal seal failure would look like a leak...

perhaps when I pulled and bench tested them I didn't notice the "leak" since they were wet from spraying into the test cup....


but failure beyond repair, sounds not too good to me.

perhaps it only hurts fuel mileage....
but perhaps over time it destroys then engine???

just don't know.
