[C38] Old fuel

[harrypowell at mac.com]

Short of throwing the fuel away, one fuel dock I use will "scrub" fuel, basically pump it out, run it through a series of filters, then back into the tank. Worth looking into and maybe cheaper than a few filter elements you may burn through. Do you have a Racor type filter that wil separate out any water?
