and if that dont do it, try the tank strainer. sure sounds like a clogged fuel filter.
fungus- well- you acn drop the tank and have it cleaned. or get some biocide- i use biobor jf from west marine or boatersworld.com and add a shock dose( do not over do it w/ this stuff, 1 pint treats 800gal, 400gal @ shock dose level)
when you do this, fill the tank absolutely full to get the biocide in all the nooks and crannies. drive a lil bit to mix it up, and park it for a day or 2. have plenty of inline filters on hand, and always carry a spare of each w/ you, along w/ the tools to change them. ( a 4 way screwdriver + cresent wrench, and a pint of ATF or seafoam to fill the filter are always in my car)
At one point, I did not go 50 miles w/ out changing my inline. at this stage in the game, it is way cheeper to use brake cleaner or carb cleaner to clean and reuse the inline filters. I have also soaked them in mineral spirits, then blow out w/ compressed air. not everyone will agree w/ this, but spending $3(local price) every 50 miles on a filter don't cut it for me.
looking back, I think dropping(TD) and cleaning the tank would have been way easier.....changing a filter on the side of the hiway in the middle of the nite in the rain suxxxx.........
good luck,mo
