BAD DIESEL??
Ok, I know we are really not supposed to get below 1/4 of a tank but last monthI did. And right at less then 1/4 of a tank it starts bogging down, and died like i am ran out of diesel. I went and got 5 gallons and put in it and it started and got it to the gas station and filled her up. Ran fine. I figued if it was bad diesel it would all mix and be fine after that. So this time i decided to go to less then 1/4 tank again to see if the problem was resolved. had the exact same problem.

If there was trash in the tank you would be having that problem even after you fill up. The pick up umbrella is right on the bottom of the tank where the trash would be. Run it to a 1/4 tank and see if it does it again. If so it's probly catching air and the in tank mods need to be done. Unless you never plan on running the tank low again. I plan To burn every bit I put incase something goes wrong and I need that extra 100 miles.
