Jessie,

I am no expert but as I say I don't believe they should sing, from =
personal
observation it does appear though that my injectors fill the boiler up
quicker when used as I describe rather than when they are having a good
sing.  I appreciate that there is a very fine line between singing and
working as I've suggested.
