FWIW I diagnosed my plugged up tank filter by reversing the fuel
lines under the hood. The car almost quit 20 miles from home, but
it ran fine going back with the lines reversed. I then rigged up a
short extension on the pressure washer wand and washed out the
tank from the top. It's been fine for about the past two years.

Don't do it if the tank is full. I think it needs to be about 5
gallons below full to not run out the port when it's opened.
