crap in tank?

[bernhund]

Got a small 'stalling' problem on the go at the moment, on which a few of you guys have given me advice on what to look for. It's just crossed my mind that on the day the problem started, I'd driven into 'speedbump city' with only a quarter of a tank of fuel. Is it possible for that reason, that some crap may have made its way into the injectors? Is there a filter or something enroute to the injectors that I should clean?
Original post 'gods of nob' for more info.

very possible, I took my tank out early this year (car had done 40k at the time) and it had a huge amount of fine alloy filings in it... the petrol looked like metalic paint!

Apparently there was a quality control issue on GT03's were the tanks were not cleaned properly... id recomend changing you fuel filter... its only £60 for the entire unit anyhow.

Fuel filter is in the side pod by the pump, i replaced my tatty paper one with a high flow metal one.
