Coupers, I had brown stuff in my Alon A2-A tanks a while ago that was so bad that little pieces would get caught in the petcock gasket while sumping, and then cause a constant drip. The only remedy for the drip was to remove the petcock, hold my finger over the hole, brush the brown flake off, retape the threads with teflon tape all with one hand and then reinsert the petcock into the tank. This always resulted with a certain amount of Av gas runing down my arm along with the use of several special words. I think that the culprit was the alodine. Last annual, when we had the tanks off for the ultra-sound, we rinsed them real good and thus far have had no trouble with brown stuff in the wing tanks. The header tank is still a problem. Sorry if I misspelled "petcock".
