The jelly stuff is light blue or gray, and it dissolves instanly if carb cleaner is sprayed into it.
For now, I will be riding with a couple of 6gal portable red tanks, and the main tank will be there holding air only. I am so tired of this problem that for now the main tank is decommisioned. If the problem goes away with the portable tanks, then I will start looking for a solution to this problem.
Last time I sailed, the motor quit on me approaching the dock, and before I managed to start it, I had hit the pier and bent/broke the SS rail.
My Yamaha 200 runs so smooth and reliable when fuel is clean, and the V20 is a dream to sail around, but a little water in the fuel can make it all worthless.
I am even considering pulling the main tank out and throwing 3 portable tanks in there, all I need to do is put hinges on the tank cover/deck.
