hi Jack .. read what’s in stabil on the bottle .. it’s alcohol . After being so careful you should know that .like the old Christy Dry Gas in the East we can’t get good gas, One station in NH. Massachusetts pols being real stupid just follow california idiocy to get votes from the silver toyota crowd. I thought system degradation too , but filter is right at the carb . why I posted the picture. system stuff this coarse cannot get by a paper filter . What is it ? But to your point maybe stock old mopar filters corrode or something with ethanol . your experience mirrors mine on carbs etc . I want to find out the why . I am sure many of us deal with this .. never the less going to cut mopar metal filter to look . on the tank filter , I may have mentioned before —it us made for alcohol fueled drag cars . See summit , their house brand is ok , 1/2 the price of fancy brands. it is big and comes apart with O rings to clean out . about 4” by 1.5” . it has a big stainless mesh screen inside , — remember no paper filter ! ever ! on intake side of pump it badly slows down pump as suction pressure there is very low . The stainless mesh has zero restriction , i get rid of sock in tank as nothing but trouble in an old car ,stainless takes its exact functional place but outside tank , anything caught in stainless is junk pulled outside of tank (,way i see it— almost good !) as some rust or dirt is always going to start . Don’t care about that , as this thing holds a cup of rust outside the tank — open it and clean in ten minutes . Dump junk . Paper filter still at carb . Must be 15 times in my car life, I was stopped dead in the middle of nowhere by rust in a fuel pump , especially old Packards . Re Nu tank process done right ( not always the case ) coats the cleaned inside and out of tank with heavy black epoxy . That is bullet proof but still steep at 400 $ . And, Add the filter no matter what . Last packard fuel pump I did a few months ago had a cup of rust in lower inlet space , to the point the arm / diaphragm could not move fully . Still sort of ran . A lot of this is like the battery , praising the tender when in fact car would have started anyway . Tender boils good batteries dry — a fact . Result of a success in spring is unrelated to tender or sta bil but looks that way . Like a rain dance — hey it worked last year . But the Briggs and Stratton stuff is real . I first read of it in an SAE paper ( I belong to SAE ) . We can find a cure . john
