I had to put my MK1 back into active service now. It's been sitting since January. It was running fine, until today
The fuel tank hold something it's not supposed to. It some yellowish thick gel like juice that completely plugged up my filter. Today I put 150 Kms on it, starting with my tank just below 1/4. (Fuel's from January) In the last 5 km's I noticed some power loss. I took the filter off, drained it, filled up with ATF. There was a lot of the stuff coming out but minimal water. Few drops at most. Then I ran it for a few clicks, power loss again, then as I pulled into work's parking lot, it died. It got so plugged up that there was vacuum in the filter when I took it off. Lot's of yellow juice in the filter.......
Question: Is there an easy way of flushing the tank? I see too lines on the bottom of the tank on the right side, on top of each other. I'm thinking of just draining it, but I really want to clean it.
Any recommendations?
