I have a 1991 19' Outrage. When the boat is completely full of fuel and jacked up on the trailer I find fuel in the back end of my boast by the wash down drain plug. After I run the boat each trip I empty the water separation container and it always has some water along with debris. I then pump out a little more gas to remove more water and debris. Looks like little rocks but may be rust. I replaced the decking last year and the tank looks fine, clean shinny aluminum. The fittings into the tank look corroded and the hoses look old. Do I need to replace the tank, fittings, and hoses or pressure test and look for leaks?
Thanks for the reply. What are you calling the clamps? Hose clamps or the fittings screwed into the tank that the hoses attach to. What would cause the debris getting into the tank?
