Your Fuel Injectors will be the first to fail due to sediment from the Fuel Tank clogging them up.

Why would you want to run It this way?

*side note*

When I washed out my Tank a short while back, their was lots of grime In the tank. I can't even concieve doing this to my car for what ever reason.

The FI's will clog up before your Engine sees anything. It doesn't take much.
