Title: fuel tank debris Post by Lucihellraiser on 07/09/20 at 10:41:38 when I was checking my gas level today, I noticed what at first I thought was grass in my fuel tank, but now I am starting to think it is metal shavings.  Any idea how they could get into my tank? I did replace the stock petcock with the raptor, but that was months ago. and how do I get them out?

Title: Re: fuel tank debris Post by oldNslow on 07/09/20 at 11:49:28 Have you ever filled the tank from a gas can (especially an old metal can)  instead of a gas station pump? Turn the petcock to OFF. Take the tank off the bike and pour the contents into a clean container. A white plastic bucket would be my choice. Then look in the bucket and see what you've got. Grass will float I think. If the shavings are steel a magnet should pick them up out of the bucket.
