Clean Your Gas Tanks
All the junk floating in my gas tank killed 2 fuel pumps. My stock pump and my Walbro. I finally drained it and pulled the gas tank off. There was all sorts of stuff floating around the bottom, along with some electrical tape. I didn't realize that there would be so much junk in there.

When i put in my walbro I accidentally dropped one of the wire nuts from the bottom of the pump into the tank and I had to fish that sonumabitch outta there, other than that it was spotless in there.
