What I did today for no reason

Just my 2 cents,
Pull the fuel tank and clean it out? Maybe a fine mesh screen at the tank neck?
No fine screen is gonna catch this stuff. Its like black talcum powder mixed with gas. I think an inline will help me,like this, but maybe with a little shutoff valve too so I can run it dry for storage.
