I took the tank out and emptied the fuel into a garbage can. At first it looked fine, but closer inspection I could see the powder (I believe it was rust). Put in new fuel and was fine for several years. It did it again later. But in both cases I remember filling when the delivery truck was there.
Great work on the replacement pump research.
