Eric: I especially like Pick Your Part! Cheapest around! Only they pick up cars with forklifts, and damage gas tanks, driveshafts, and sometimes truck boxes or cabs...
But they rock on the prices!

Picking cars with a forklift is common in the big yards.

I also see a lot of stuff torn up by one person just so they can get to the part they need. I try not to "smash and grab" like some people.

Also, putting 3 filters in the line won't do much good. The first filter in line will still plug up. You may have a rusty tank, rusty lines, contaminated fuel from the station, or you just might be using alcohol fuel (bad stuff).

Your probably not going to get rid of the problem till you pull and clean the tank. Maybe even seal it. Or do what I did and buy a bigger new one.
