2001 F350 fuel tank problems

has anyone had or heard of the rubber on inside of 2001 F350 tank coming off and clogging the fuel system? Had to get towed home. Fuel filter full of black rubber from inside the tank.
I cannot find a thread on it..

The only "rubber" inside the tank is the pickup foot. The lining on steel tanks isn't rubber and there is no lining in the poly tanks. There are rubber hoses on the way to the pump - I wonder if they are breaking down. Have you been running anything other than #2 pump diesel?

Some tanks were laminated and biodiesel was known to cause the laminate to break down. Don't know what color it was.

Those were the metal tanks - this generation of PSDs have poly tanks.
