All Right About Every 2 Or 3 Weeks My Fuel Filter Cloogs And Its Getting Really Expensive Now

Does Any One Have Any Ideas At All

drop your tank and wash it out. best way is steam. or real hot water, like a car wash. then slosh some methonal in it to absorb moisture

i droped the tank about a year ago BUT went i did i didnt see no fuel sock on the pick up could that be it and if it is were do i get one at

Probably have algae.

sure can x2 on that black icky stuff called algae, cut the filter outta the metal housing to the filter its self see if its black! if so get some treatment for it!!!

If you do add an algaecide expect a few more filter changes cause it doesn't get rid of the algae it just kills them.

do you get your fuel from same place, or majority for the last year. you more than likely picked up some water and bugs, the bugs are normally black when dead, but may be reddish-brown(rusty mud). might think about putting coarse screen/filter in line to lift pump outside tank(easy to clean/replace). need to drop tank and clean, i have used electric fuel pump to recirc fuel tank, added couple gallons of gas to act as solvent. pull fuel thru filter(will need spare cheap metal car filters to catch junk) to pump. you can pump to jugs/container to check, if clean you can treat with some kind of biocide and recirc thru micron filter to catch bugs. ive done this on boats that owner didn't want to get rid of fuel, didn't mind time to recirc thou.

Any specifics on these? type, make, model? sorry don't mean to hyjack

update: I put a small inline canister filter from autozone to catch the crap in my tank until i drop it and get it cleaned out. cheep and it works

I used a Holley glass inline fuel filter on my burb pre lift pump because I had to remove the factory tank screen with my aftermarket fuel pickup. I used glass so I could see if there is air or crap in the line. So far so good.
