On my 2002 Hunter 356 by removing the sender there is about a 2 inch hole through which I can just see a disc of sediment floating threateningly beneath the fuel pickup. The boat is running fine and the filter not bad.
How can I remove the sludge without removing the tank? I have a small pump and ideally would remove the fuel pickup and drop my pump tube straight down but it looks like the pickup has fittings on the inside of the tank which must have been installed during manufacture. I'm loathed to put an inspection hatch in because of the inevitable debris and sealing.
Any advice appreciated.
