biocide will plug up filters, fuel conditioner will do little for the infection.

the trick is to reverse the tank lines, and have the biocide flush out the tank strainer, and NEVER LET THE TANK GET BELOW 1/2 level!!! after a week, change the filters, put the lines back the way it was, and drive happy!
Tank cleaner.
