I read Jim Bound's latest Daily Pose, and he showed a very ugly picture of a badly plugged fuel filter (everyone carries some spares and the tools to change them? Of Course!). Are others having as many problems with their coaches in other parts of the country, or is this more of a problem in the humid, southern states? If the problem is this bad all over the country, it may be time to see if someone can make a rubber fuel bladder to fit in the tanks (just like a race car fuel cell), or come up with another fuel tank material to prevent this much rust and crud coming up through the fuel system. It seems that a large, easily replacable fuel filter somewhere in the fuel lines (just before the electric fuel pump you've installed) would be a good idea.

It would be nice to hear from people in other parts of the country to see how common this problem truly is!
