Suggest having a fuel polishing service come down to the boat and take care of it. It is a simple process and hands down the best solution to your issue. Three of my neighboring boat owners had it done and can't say enough good things about the results. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

I'm pretty new to this site and to Uniflite ownership. bought a 1970 27' Express about a month and a half ago. It's in reasonable shape, twin 318's,but I don't really think it's been used much in the past 8-10 years. Just been mostly sitting at the dock. Well, since I've bought it, I've been running it. Almost every day. Figure I'll work the bugs out of it plus make my list off projects for the off-season. Biggest issue so far: Fuel tanks. The port tank is really bad. Full of crud. Ran it about 55nm yesterday and had to replace the canister filter element three times. The starboard tank is better, not nearly as much junk. But here is one issue: When I try to run both engines off the starboard tank, the port engine will behave like it's starved for fuel, won't go above 2600RPM or so. Wasn't like that just a month ago when I bought it. Otherwise, I think these tanks are going to have to go. Anybody with any thoughts, ideas or recommendations?
