black diesel in the tank, and prime filter,

[rreeuuvveenn]

Dear Kind people of this forum,

upon cleaning the fuel tank strainer,

Diesel was black , ( see picture attached )

black staff around the strainer lips,

Did put Star Brite, star Torn,in the tank,(probably too much!),

filled the tank with new diesel, ( 23.5 gallons!!!!),

took the prime fuel filter out, cut it open, ( see attached picture )

Black on the outside filter paper,

The diesel that came out, looks clean,(middle picture )

am I the only one?

driving 15,000-20,000 miles a year,

keep the tank full, Southern California,

order three Fuel filters, to keep in the trunk,

any clue?

thanks
