Anyone dealt with diesel bacteria/algae before?? Ive been dealing with low power/surging when I got low on fuel for the past few months and finally got around to dropping the tank today. My hypothesis was I was pulling in air mid-way down the fuel pick up. I was wrong.
See pics:
Fuel pick up strainer covered in grey sludge. Has consistency of thick paint. Fuel drained from the bottom of the tank after swirling it around is grey and cloudy. NOT GOOD
Any ideas on how to really clean the tank out? Would it be worth it to clean tank and the coat the inside with tank sealer? Also debating new tank from Mr T or long range tank....
