on my new Fuzion I decided to check the fuel station first and almost the same thing but looked more like plastic shavings, particulates, and maybe pipe dope or similar. So much that after letting the fuel settle in a five gallon jug it left about a half inch layer of soot and larger junk too on the bottom. I was able to filter the fuel using socks to save the 30 gallons and not fill up my brand new Maverick X3 with this ****! Complaint is in to Keystone. Wonder how much **** is in my generator side!?
IMO, you need to drop the tank and flush it completely.
There is either a small pickup tube open to the bottom of the tank, or a pickup tube with a filter sock on it. Either way, with as much debris as you had, the fuel pump could get damaged. Not sure how that much debris even made it thru the fuel pump to get in your fuel jugs..? I'd also check the pump gears condition, sounds like it was acting like a maceration pump....
May be a LOT of bigger stuff still in there that can't fit thru the pickup tube, if that much made it thru your fuel station fuel pump and out the nozzle...? I'd be scared that big stuff finally breaks up and makes it thru to destroy your pump...
