Fuel bowl debris...

Also while tinkering in the shop, I took the fuel filter cap off, pulled the filter out, and took a 5ft long piece of clear vinyl tubing and syphoned the fuel out of the bowl...holy hell!, there was chunks of all kinds of stuff in there!! I bet there was enough junk to fill a coke bottle cap!, and I regularly hit the drain lever at every fill up. I guess some of that stuff just wont run out. But this was a fast and easy way to clean it up...the clear tubing is handy for seeing whats coming out, and how close you are to sucking some diesel into your mouth!

You drain your fuel bowl every time you fill up?
