Bob: We used to have a tractor (it was red ) that had a habit of choking on microscopic stuff in the fuel filters while blue and orange tractors ran and ran on the same fuel. We finally brazed a steel tire valve onto the fuel tank cap, turned the compressor down to about 50 pounds and blew while cranking the engine. Easy and quick assuming all fittings are tight and could be done by an air pig if the tractor dropped in a distant field. Another method. Good Luck. Tom
