We both had our filters clog after the first couple of tanks, which is normal of course, while it cleaned out the systems. My dad hasn't had any issues since changing his original filter with a motorcraft filter. I changed my original filter with a NAPA gold filter and within 500-600 miles the filter was clogged. I removed it and noticed a layer of dark film on the filter. So, I replaced it again with another NAPA gold filter and again within 600-700 miles the filter clogged. Again there was a film present on the filter. Now I replaced with a Motorcraft filter and it seems like it might be starting to clog up again... Meanwhile my dad has had no trouble what so ever. I've attached pictures of the second NAPA gold filter after removing from my truck. I wouldn't think it is the fuel while my dad hasn't had any issues, not sure if it is the fuel eating at my fuel tank maybe. Thoughts? Thanks.

How is your quality control for fuel making? Are you sure you are making good fuel? How do you wash your fuel, water or dry media? What temperatures was the weather when this goo formed? Are your tanks plastic or metal?
