I would think Id get a black grit from that, who knows

Could be, in my head I was picturing those kinda clear lines that turn brown with age.

Clear plastic lines where not last used in tank, they where rubber hoses.

There are two ways I can think that rusty stuff can get into a plastic tank that has not been considered that I can see so far....

If the tank has a fuel guage sending unit...they rust up pretty bad from moisture in the air...and drop particles in the bottom over time...and then...hate to say it...the source that you get your fuel from may be suspect...the rusty water mess may be getting pumped into the tank...unsuspectingly...

I feel for ya...chasing this problem...

Have you checked the vent..? I have seen clogged/restricted vents that will collapse a tank...makes 'em look funny...stretches the lines, and lifts or locks down the fuel level sender float.

At least I knew the pump was strong...

Just tryin' to be helpful...

I did drain the tank some weeks back and this is some of what came out it. After cleaning the tank, it will run till the tank is empty sitting. So I had them use the machine near where it sits, it gave no issue being ran for about a hour. So tanks for the help given.

This is the old fuel lines that came off the came off the bottom of the tank.

This has a manual gauge on top of the tank, it has a stainless steel rod in the tank with a plastic float.
