While out fishing in WA. state yesterday on our way back in the engine died, started back up, but when accelerated died as if fuel starved, I believe fuel filter is clogged, letting gas through at a low level until filter will not let enough fuel through at high demand, haven't changed filter in years, although I am religious about clean fuel and sta-bill. I realize that as the filter is under tank (?)I've got to pull the tank off to replace, are the 3 bolts on top the only hangups in removing tank? Can I get enough play on tank with hoses still attached to access fuel filter and clamp off filter feed hose? Thanks for input, glad to have found your site! Bob R
