Ouch again!!!  Mine did the same thing in the right wing tank.  Problem
is, along with those big chunks, there are lots of little pieces.  I could
see the small stuff floating around each time I'd sample my fuel in that
tank before flight.  Enough of the stuff made it through all of the
filters and screens that it finally started plugging the idle jet.  Come
in for a landing, and I'd find the fire was out.  Tricky.  Took removal
and resealing of the tank, and a carb rebuild to fix it all.  But then it
was wonderful.

Take a good look inside your tanks, I just spent a small fortune pulling
all three tanks and sending them out for rebuild -- seems the sloshing
agent in my was "delaminating" and I was getting 1 square inch and bigger
pieces in the tank, couldn't seem them on a casual look in the tank but
they were rapping themselves around the filter and shutting off the fuel.
Usually happened with low fuel in the mains 

Fix it
