Tractor runs like a top now. Problem is its still sucking crap into the valve/sediment bowl and plugging up and stalling the engine. I have cleaned the bowl and valve 4 times now. Theres about 1/8 inch of crud in the bowl again just as I shut up shop earlier as I got to go to work soon. I have drained the tank and rinse it with gas 3 times.

Whats a good way to clean out the tank? It would be a major undetaking to get the tank off the tractor as the entire top is bolted together and then welded.

Thought about some dish soap and the garden hose and let water run though the tank for about 30 minutes flushing it? Seems as the tractor is driving around fuel slops around catching small particles that are plugging up the valve to the sediment tank.

Any ideas, thoughts or sugestions?
