I emptied out my bow mounted fuel tank last week(had 18 month old stabil treated fuel in it). I looked in the tank with a flashlight and didn't notice any rust etc(but I can't see too far left and right of the opening). I replaced the fuel line and installed a clear fuel filter like this one.
I just noticed that the fuel in the sediment bowl is amber colored instead of the greenish tint it normally has. I don't know if this color change happened immediately when I reinstalled the bow fueltank earlier this week....or this color change happened in the 24 hours or so.
Is my fuel contaminated or did the yellow filter element somehow change the color of the fuel when it filtered it?
