Hi Dave=0Amost contamination gets in when fuel is added. Rust from Jerry ca
ns is not uncommon, also algae from old fuel. You really need separate filt
ers so that if one blocks you have a get down safely reserve. 914s tend to 
be more of a problem because of the high flow rate.=0AGraham=0A=0A=0A=0A=0A
